Thus begins a descent into madness, corruption, and death as a growing plague of evil hounds the companions' every step. ©2017 Jackson Creed (P)2017 White Cat Publications, LLC. Typically thriller/paranormal books like this one immediately draw me in. That was not my experience with 'Breath' - it felt very slow to get going and my interest in the characters/story wasn't peaked until about half way through. It's not that it was a bad listen, I just didn't love it and didn't find it very intriguing. I listened to the whole thing because by the middle, I did in fact want to know what happened to Avram. I really liked that the story took place internationally in many exotic locations and the narration was quite good throughout. My final complaint is that the book ended rather abruptly and in an unsatisfying way! I would only recommend this book to any friends who really love vampire stories.<br/><br/>I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. took me a bit to get hooked.. This book took me a bit to get into. I am not sure why.. its a good book. maybe because i was not use the sole is was written in. I guess it took a bit for it to get moving. its a great twist, on a classic tale of un- naturals books that I love to read so much. I would say give this book a chance, its a fun ride in the end. I loved this book!It isn't often you find a book that keeps you in suspense but this one did.Miguel Perez does a fantastic job narrating. While on holiday a man notices that the children of his friends are acting weird.He also keeps seeing a little girl.Then he forgets..until the next time it happens.I was provided this book free by the author, narrator or publisher. CRAIG T SCHWARTZ Not a bad book. Not the best at reviews but I do recommend this one. Original mythological vampire story Quite unique and original. The story spans the globe beautifully with characters that are compelling and creepy. Lilith and her children are attempting to spread her vision and it is horror at its best. The main character goes through a tortured journey that is not of his choosing. Great narration and story together make this a creepy but compelling listen. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. Took a bit to draw me in, but a good book overall I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. So, it took me a bit to get into this one… The narrator had a great, resonant voice but I kept finding my mind drifting because I was distracted. I stopped and started it a couple of times before I got sufficiently drawn into the story. Turns out, it was a good book in the end. As others have said, this story was an interesting take on traditional vampires.

Around the same time last year I cooked Greek Pastitsio but I was unable to document it because my camera died. Justyn was craving this dish so I decided to make it. Not sure why he picked a warm weekend to crave it but anyway.. I started out by browning some ground chuck (80/20) and then added a diced onion, 4 cloves of garlic, a bay leaf, ground cinnamon, tomato sauce, and petite diced canned tomatoes. It simmered for 35 minutes. While the meat mixture simmered, I cooked the pasta to barely al dente. About 12 minutes. I wanted the pasta to absorb the liquid in the meat mixture to add more flavor to it. I combined the two in the pasta pot with some Romano cheese. Then I preheat the oven to 350 and started on the bechamel sauce. The bechamel started with a roux. I slowly added milk to it to avoid clumps. When it thickened, I added cheese, eggs, salt & pepper and a little nutmeg. I put the pasta and meat mixture in a greased baking dish and then poured the bechamel sauce over it. It baked for about 40 minutes and here it is! I served it with some cucumber, roma tomato & red onion salad. I don't recommend making this on a warm day. I was seriously sweating up a storm in the kitchen. Although if you don't mind the heat, you should make this. Srsly good stuff! Posted by Last night, Ken, Justyn and I went to the Richard Cheese show at Bimbo's in SF. WHAT.. A.. SHOW!!! When the opening act came on stage, I thought I was going to be bored out of my pants. However when Richard Cheese came on stage he was hilarious, joking with the audience, drinking and sang some of my favorite covers. He even did a cover of the Three's Company intro and the Subway commerical haha! I was either smiling or laughing the entire time. It's too bad I didn't get a better picture of the action. Waiting in lineOh yeah... and before the show, we went to a place called Burgermeisters. Don't go there. The burgers are overpriced and lacked a wow factor. I had the Western burger with garlic fries. If you're going to charge $14 for that, it better be a damn good burger. Nope. The bacon tasted weird but I think it was the BBQ sauce that did it. Anyway, here are a couple pictures of my burger and Justyn's. After the show, we went to a bar near Bimbo's and met some pretty interesting characters. For one, this guy was carrying around this white boombox which he later destroyed by accidentally kicking it. Overall, I had an awesome time and I totally want to see one of his upcoming shows :D Posted by I couldn't sleep in yet again so I got up at 8:30 and went to the store. Justyn and I had watched Diners Drive-Ins & Dives on Food Network where Guy went to a restaurant called Amato's. This guy made his own ricotta cheese and put them in some blueberry pancakes. Justyn was drooling like crazy so I thought I'd be a good wife and get ingrediants to make some for him. I don't normally make breakfast but I love the genius of Batter Blaster. It makes making pancakes easy with minimal mess. Plus there's nothing unnatural about the batter. It's all organic! Justyn woke up while I was making these pancakes and helped me. The first 5 pancakes turned out either burned or collapsed. Eventually I got the tempurature right and they started turning out this luscious golden brown. I didn't so much like the blueberries so I made a couple with only ricotta cheese. Those were OK. Posted by This was kind of an eerie challenge. I swear, the day before the challenge came out, I made a card with almost the same exact colors. Unfortunately before I thought about taking a picture of it, I mailed it off. I thought about recreating it but when I was sketching for this challenge I came up with something entirely different. I was thinking about how my designs seem to have stitching in almost all of them and how I could incorporate that into this card. So.. here's how it turned out. Lots and lots of stitching. I had almost all the colors in my embroidery stash except for the celery & ballet blue. Not a big deal though.. embroidery floss is like $0.59 each? I am guilty of wasting 2 sheets of white cardstock on this challenge though. When I did my sketches for the first two attempts, they didn't turn out quite as well when I tried it out with the actual materials. Anyway, I've babbled on enough hope you guys like it :) Posted by Today we went to Downtown San Jose's Obon Festival. After a long night of drinking, I needed gyoza, chicken salad, teriayki & sushi. I'm still shocked that they don't have yakitori or tako yaki. I mean how good would that be? I'm thinking about opening a tako yaki stand next year and totally sell out of those things. You can't have street food without tako yaki ya know? Or what about okinomiyaki? Anyway, we got there about an hour earlier so we grabbed some much needed coffee before venturing into the farmer's market. As we perused the stands, we found a guy that was selling hummus, dolmas & olives so we bought some pita, hummus and olives for dinner tonight. Justyn's going to grill up some meat.. I can't wait! After walking around a bit, we finally passed enough time for the festival to start. First thing's first, we went and got some food. We walked around a bit more and Justyn bought me these beautiful flowers that almost have a ginger like scent. I'm a happy girl today! Posted by Haha... the Iron Chef judge just came out with a ruling. I won!! Here's what he wrote about my dish: "fantastic presentation the fish was so tender that it was a slice of heaven in my mouth. the sesame seeds really do make a fine addition to the fish itself the infusion of the sauce and the Jap Chae make the flavor combination very exotic tasting. the sauce in particular was very well rounded and really was a fine addition.while eating this i could close my eyes and pretend that i was at a fine dining establishment. it was this well prepared."And here are the results by point system: Justyn:taste: 10presentation:9Jaded:taste:10presentation:10 Earlier in the week one of our friends went to Alaska and did some fishing. He caught a buncha huuuge fish and didn't know what to do with all of it. He offered a big slap of halibut to us since we love to cook. Since it was such a big piece of fish, I decided to make it fun and do an "Iron Chef" battle against Justyn. He quickly agreed. Justyn went with flavors from Europe and I knew that I had to go with aZn. He cooked yesterday and made a White Bean & Halibut Stew. Here's how it turned out. It was rich, smoky (from the bacon) but not too heavy for a summer night's meal. Here's what our judge (Eric) said about his dish: "what a combo.white beans bacon and halibut. the fish was perfectly cooked as was the bacon.the marriage of flavor between the 3 main ingredients was a cacophony of flavors all working to bring me much delight.it was a hearty flavor but still felt very light and refreshing. the seasoning was perfect and not too salty. being a white fish there was no fishy smell. the meat of the fish was firm yet fell apart perfectly when i ate it.this was easily the best thing i have eaten all week.i hungrily anticipate the other half of this challenge."So onto my portion of the challenge. I actually did a lot of searching for a recipe that touched my soul. Eventually I found a recipe by Hosea (last season's Top Chef winner). Sesame Crusted Halibut w/ Ginger Cream Sauce served with his version of Jap Chae (Recipe: http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/sesame-crusted-tuna-with-ginger-cream)It was perfect! Except... you know me. I can't go without modifying recipes. Instead of heavy cream, I used coconut milk and instead of tuna, it was halibut of course. So I needed a recipe to help me time how long the halibut needed to cook. So I used this recipe: http://www.harvesteating.com/public/800.cfm. I skipped the step of baking the fish since I didn't want to overcook it. 2 minutes on each side turned out perfect. The fish was tender and moist. At first I wasn't even going to make Jap Chae but I figured I might need the extra boost to help me win. After cooking everything and tasting it, I'm pretty sure I'm going to win hehe.. It was a fun battle and I can't wait to see what the judge says about my dish. Cross your fingers for me! I wanna win this one bad! And who knows, even if I lose, we'll probably do future battles against each other. It's too fun not to heh. Posted by Well, I finally found an opportunity to use the saffron my sister got for me when she was in Italy. I can't imagine how much she paid for this but I figure she'd appreciate me finally cooking with it. It's just too bad I decided to cook this dish on a weeknight, otherwise I'd have her over. Next time for sure :) I browned the chicken on both sides in an equal mixture of melted butter & olive oil. After the chicken browned, I removed some of the oil and sauteed the onion and garlic w/ some salt & pepper. I added the rice and sauteed that for a minute before adding the broth, water, bay leaf & saffron. I reseasoned it and then added the chicken back in, brought it to a boil and then dropped it down to a simmer for 27 minutes. Here it is plated. I looove this recipe! And it's simple enough for a quick weeknight meal. Recipe: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2009/06/dinner-tonight-chicken-and-rice-with-saffron-recipe.html

Katlyn Keane: 2011 Katlyn Keane freezing busses, family, weddings, and CHOCLO So, I returned to Quito for the wedding of my host brother Roberto....turns out that the bus from Oyacachi leaves at 4 am! Of course I slept wonderfully that night, worrying about whether I would wake up in time..I didn't really need to wake up, just GET up really. I was pretty much awake. On board the bus I though surely they would have some sort of heat...nope. Apparently busses from Oyacachi have NO HEAT whatsoever. The man next to me was wearing a face mask, like a balaclava. good move sir, good move. I was wearing one pair of pants and a thin jacket....bad. HOWEVER, I made it to Quito and got to see my host family once again, I spent the whole day making bocaditos which are small, cute, snacks for wedding, parties etc. We made SO MANY bocaditos, literally we spent the whole day. They turned out really nice though and they were all pretty delicious. The wedding itself was beautiful and I would put up pictures except my camera cord has stopped working. The whole family was there and Ecuadorians LOVE to dance, so we danced from around 3 till 9 at night. I borrowed some high heels from a friend and my feet hurt so bad. My host mother made the cake for the wedding and it was SO GOOD, I don't know what kind it was but it may have been the most delicious cake I have every had. I go back to the freezing land of Oyacachi this coming Wednesday to finish up my project and then on December 2nd I'm bound for Quito and the Hostal Posada del Maple to reunite with my fellow compañeros de la programa. I am pretty excited to see them as well as see my real family in the states. This whole experience has been like an amazingly long and education vacation and I wouldn't trade it for anything. ciao y hasta pronto (oh yea, and choclo is this delicious corn that they have here, sooooo good) Posted by Kat Keane at 9:49 AM No comments: off to the Páramo Well, my family just whisked me off to celebrate the ferriada (holidays exactly one month before fiestas de Quito) on the beautiful beaches of the province Esmereldas. We spend our days on the beach and our nights....on the beach. There was seafood, swimming, and coconuts everywhere. However, returning from this sunny, hot, costal climate I am leaving tomorrow for my ISP!!!!!!! I am going to the reserve of Cayambe-Coca wayyyyyy up in the Andes at about 4,000m and it is going to be SO cold. I will specifically be living in Oyacachi, a small mountain village and working on a project with two Ecuadorians about the Andean tapir. Specifically the study is trying to figure out whether the Andean tapir is an efficient seed disperser in the Páramo which means we will be collecting it's feces and dissecting them to see if there are more seeds, leaves or stems. All in all it's a pretty exciting project. I have no idea about my internet situation so I may not be blogging for a while, but you never know here. Plaza Gutierrez, the cloud forest village on top of a mountain which we had to walk an hour to get to had internet access in one building in the town so I have faith for Oyacachi which at least has road access. I am also going a month without access to showers or laundry. The only bathing I will be doing is in natural hot springs (WOAH!) and the only washing of clothes will be by hand. hmmmm. I am also living in a tent (I have yet to purchase a pillow) and cooking all my own meals with my two advisors. It will be an experience for sure. I am extremely sad to be leaving my host family, I will miss them A TON while I'm studying in the Páramo, but fortunately I get to return for the wedding of my host brother Robert. I am really happy to say that I love my host family, I recommend them for any student who is coming here and I will definitely miss them. I would be the happiest if they ever came to the U.S. to visit. They seem skeptical whenever I mention this however haha. Anyways, it's been a wild ecuadorian ride and it will only continue with this adventure in Cayambe-Coca. ciao, and can't wait to see St. Mikes campus again! Posted by Kat Keane at 7:46 AM No comments: From Galapagos to final exams we though this was supposed to be Darwin, but were not entirely sure. It is on the island of San Cristóbal Ellen and I living the life of the sea lions NOT SEALS!!! Snorkeling! I did not rent a wet suit...mistake As you can probably imagine from the title of this blog, it is a bit depressing arriving from the land of constant spring break and blue footed boobies to the land of heavy traffic and final exams. Despite this inconvenient truth, my companions and I remain in high spirits through this week of exams. You're probably all wondering why I am talking about final exams when there are the Galapagos to talk about. yea. So the Galapagos were AMAZING! I have literally never seen water so blue and sand so white in my life (though there are other colors too). The only thing the Galapagos is missing is proper trees. All it has near the coast are a few palms and inland are cactus and large bushes. As you get higher up the volcanos however there are some more respectable trees. The landscape was that of a volcano desert, all the islands being made from volcanoes being pushed out of the water by tectonic plates and a hotspot that happens to be directly beneath the islands. But enough science, what did we do? -snorkeled every day (with fish, rays, turtles, sea lions, sharks, you name it) -lived with a homestay on the largest island of Isabella (they fed me SO MUCH) - climbed the volcano Sierra Negra -chilled on the beach -lived on a yacht for four days -hiked around San Cristóbal, Española, Floreana, N. Seymour and Baltra -ate some really good food -played soccer with the crew -jumped off said yacht into the water Although the yacht was my preferred part of the journey to the homestay, I still feel like I am on that boat which is unfortunate because I am not. Walking through the streets of Quito is already a challenge for me and now I have the added bonus of being seasick walking through the streets. joy. I am faring well however and seeing as it has been FIVE DAYS I expect the seasickness to go away any day now (please please please) We also observed some Albatross in the crazy mating dance and also some blue footed boobies showing off those feet. We say nocturnal gulls (the only existing ones on the planet), giant tortoises, Darwin's finches, and laid in the sun with sea lions. It was an amazing trip and I recommend it to anyone interested in marine life and history because it is rich in both. However, coming back to reality I have this week to make final presentations and exams count an then the 8th of November I go to Oyachachi for my ISP! I am studying the Andean Tapir there with two researchers who have been working on the project for a while now. I am really excited, but it is not going to be easy. I am living in a tent, there is no running water nor shower, I cook all my own food, and I hike all day looking for tapir chewing and poop. What a life. I think it will be tons of fun however and perhaps it will burn off some of the bread I have eaten in Quito so I can possibly start thinking about skiing at St. Mikes. Posted by Kat Keane at 4:43 PM No comments: My new room in the city of Quito. I suppose it's not new anymore...it is pretty small, but I like to think that means it is maybe a little bit warmer than the rest of the house. Thankfully, there is a larger than life-size picture of Jesus above my bed. My host sister Anaí and I. She was one of two younger siblings in the Cloud Forest specifically the small andean town of Plaza Gutierrez. Those people had some serious town pride. Xavier (one of my two academic directors) was REALLY excited about this tanager that we caught in the mist nets. wow our accommodations in the cloud forest. I stayed in the 'birding cabin' aka: the closest to the academic directors so we could wake up super early to mist net birds! The blanket on these beds were SO HEAVY, but it was good because it was freeeeezing. Posted by Kat Keane at 7:25 PM No comments: waiting for Galapagos... It has been a solid week and a half after the Amazon trip, yet it feels like we went there ages ago. The sticky humidity, waking up to yelling monkeys, and spiders the size of your face could be a dream as of this point. These past two weeks have definitely done their work to bring us back to the reality that we are in fact in school. What with our Field Investigation Projects due, Sustainability projects up and coming, Agency visits, and ISP preparation we are all pretty swamped. On a positive note, I went to visit el centro viejo (the old center) of Quito with my host mom and aunt this past Friday, we got to know the little section known as Rhonda which was gorgeous and reminded me a little of Burlington, VT. There were little hole-in-the-wall shops and restaurants in every inch of wall and there was always some band playing inside. We saw an indigenous dance performance, avoided hippies trying to sell us sparkly things, and ate empanadas (technically classified as street food which I am not supposed to eat, but asi es la vida). The next day (being Saturday) almost our entire group of 23 students hoped a bus to Otavalo, a mountain town about 2 hours away in a bus. We visited the famous market there, a bustling center for tourists and gringos like ourselves. The market must have gone on for 20 blocks in length and about that in width. It was enormous! A small group of us stayed behind as well to visit a waterfall about a 20 min. walk away. It was a day well spent even if I did get a bit sunburnt. This week has been full to say the least. With spanish ever morning and then lecture from 10:30 till 1:00 the days are pretty long. I have been trying to get some running/training in so as to ski with some sense of dignity on the St. Mikes nordic team this winter when I return. So far the outlook is bleak, but the altitude here may be working in my favor (I hope!) Anyways, my next post will probably be after the Galapagos knowing myself and how often I blog. We are going to the well known islands this coming Tuesday (today being Wednesday) and I CAN NOT wait. We are living on a boat for half the trip and with a Galapagos family for the second half. woah. see ya on the other side. Posted by Kat Keane at 7:14 PM No comments: after the Amazon Well, back in the city of Quito, honestly it's kind of a let down after being in the Amazon for a week, but it is wonderful to be reunited with my host family and also some sense of normality. Though I cannot possibly convey the experience of the Amazon as truly and meaningfully as I would want I am going to try. First of all we took a plane, a boat on the Napo River, a Chiva through the forest, and another boat along the Tiputini River to get the Tiputini Estación de Biodiversidad. Needless to say it was just the anacondas and us out there. Anyhow, we started every morning early (but not yet bright) at 5:30 with either a canopy bridge, a 40 meter bird watching tower, a float down the Tiputini or a Caminata (aka really long, slow hike to see sweet forest animals). We had breakfast at 8 so of course my stomach was eating itself by then, but we had peanut butter (!) which was a major plus. For animals we saw: many other amazing birds... Capybaras (the world's largest rodent) Tapirs (look these guys up, wow) an anaconda strangling a caiman (this is not a lie, and a caiman is a crocodile type thing) butterflies of all colors and much more tat I am probably forgetting so yea, we had electricity from 10:30am-12:00pm and 7pm-9:30pm. otherwise we had candles which actually give off a fair bit of light :) We were at least a little bit damp ALL THE TIME because everything there is incredibly humid. There is no escaping being wet all the time, not my fav. Also chiggers-the most annoying, tiniest bugs in the world that prefer to bite areas the sun never shines on, great. It was an incredible experience full of ecology, lectures on everything from deforestation, soil types, army ants and carnivorous bats! I doubt I will have another chance in my lifetime to visit the Amazon and immerse myself as I did last week so I feel extremely lucky to have had the opportunity. Now we get to look forward to the Galapagos! I am seriously the luckiest person ever. Katí (my name here) Posted by Kat Keane at 3:04 PM 1 comment: one week in Quito Well, it is friday in Quito and instead of going to spanish class I am going to my host families farm! It is about 3 hours from Quito and they have cows, chickens, crops and other cool stuff! About class. . . my academic director gave me permission. I am also missing a 'charla' about the Andean bear, but I am not going to do my ISP about that so no big deal. Anyways, this week flew by! We had normal class Monday, Wednesday and Friday (which means spanish in the morning and ecology or something else interesting like Ecuadorian History in the afternoon). However, on Tuesday we visited the Museo de Guayasamín. Guayasamín is an artist who paints GIANT paintings about human suffering, love, history using themes from all around the world. His paintings have a Picasso feel to them, but they are less colorful. Anyways, it was really cool. On Thursday we went on a MINGA! to plant trees at a woman named Kathy's house. Each student was supposed to plant four trees to offset their carbon footprint for the semester. Of course, the trees they plant have to live 80 years in order to actually off set the carbon, so hopefully those baby trees will survive. I actually did not plant any trees as I am working on a sustainability project with 4 other students measuring the mortality of said trees from past semesters and deciding which ones live longest. There are Plots A-E of trees and we only got halfway through measuring Plot D, hence we will be traveling back there in two weekends. I am adjusting to my homestay pretty well, the family is really nice and quite proper. They took me to the historic center of town last night and we bought a GIANT bowl of guayava (a type of dessert made with eggs and guava, it looks like ice cream. . .but it's not) and a smaller bowl of ice cream. I have to take the trolle to school every day which is a new and sometimes scary experience for a rural Maine girl like me. Yesterday I basically had to shove myself onto the trolle into about 10 other people if I even wanted to get home, so I did. Anyhow, still can't get a sweet background of my blog, I'm somewhat technology illiterate so I will keep trying. Posted by Kat Keane at 6:49 AM No comments: Well, I was out of touch for a bit because I was in fact living in the cloud forest Intag for a week (!), but I am yet again connected as my savvy new Ecuadorian family has given me their wireless password. Their house is also super chevre. I can't really explain in words how the cloud forest affected me because it was something that I never anticipated nor imagined. I will instead sum up my activities and let you all decide how these experiences may have been. -learned to i.d. about 10 plant species by their latin names -mist netting (catching birds in nets and i.d.ing/studying them) -ate delicious ecuadorian food (RICE AND BEANS etc.) -cloud forest drop off (alone time with the forest haha) -helped build a puente (bridge) -lived with a family from Plaza Gutierrez for three days (AMAZING) -went on a 6 hour hike through the cloud forest -harvested firewood and beans with my host father and brother -danced with a farmer -attended the 110th anniversary of Plaza Gutierrez party -saw a crater lake from an old volcano -bought some helado (ice cream) -finally met my host family in Quito and that is the very shortened version of my adventures. They have been incredible thus far and I only expect them to get more amazing as we have trips planned for the Amazon and Galápagos as well. ciao, Katí (because no one here can say Kat) Posted by Kat Keane at 5:31 AM No comments: Just an update. . . . My flight that was supposed to be leaving tomorrow morning at 11:00 am has been conveniently changed to Tuesday at 3:00 pm. haha. Well, thank you hurricane Irene. Despite this inconvenience, I shall maintain a positive attitude and be thankful that at least I have a little more time to work through the arduous, but intriguing Neotropical Companion. (my required reading for Ecuador) Posted by Kat Keane at 2:29 PM No comments: So, I've got about 4 days until I leave for Ecuador! I've been excited for the past year, but only now are the nervous feelings acting up. On the plus side, my flight now leaves at 11:00 am instead of 6:00 am. That's cool. I am crazy busy right now preparing to leave for Ecuador while at the same time squaring away visa preparations for my spring semester in Chile. difficult. I do get to see the beautiful St. Michael's College this winter as I attempt to get a job and ski on the nordic team for the 2 months of time I will be in the U.S. it is the Latin American summer vacation. Can't wait for the amazing experiences to come. . . Posted by Kat Keane at 8:20 PM No comments: My new room in the city of Quito. I suppose it's n... Kat Keane

The Postman Always Rings Twice, Happy Anniversary! Premiered May 2, 1946 | Classic Film Aficionados The Postman Always Rings Twice, Happy Anniversary! Premiered May 2, 1946 Posted on May 2, 2014 by classicfilmaficionados Picture perfect in practically every way is the Film-Noir masterpiece, The Postman Always Rings Twice, with stellar performances by John Garfield and Lana Turner, with undeniable precision-point support by Hume Cronyn, Cecil Kellaway and Leon Ames; directed by Tay Garnett (in my opinion he reached his apex with this film), Sidney Wagner was the cinematographer (stark, black & white beauty), Irene designed the costumes, Edwin B. Willis did the set decoration while Randall Duell and Cedric Gibbons took care of the art-decoration. I never tire of this film, watching as it were the inevitable choices that the characters make, ever drawing them closer to the impending doom, which the viewer sees from the beginning. Enjoy the Postman in all of it’s glory on Blu-Ray. Note from the side: The Postman Always Rings Twice was produced for radio by The Screen Guild Theater for CBS Radio, on June 16, 1947, with John Garfield and Lana Turner reprising their roles, supported by The Lady Esther Screen Guild Players (Lady Esther Cosmetics was the sponsor of The Screen Guild Theater when Postman was aired).

In addition, a RF noise generating means is coupled to the input of the DRFM at the optimum level for providing random noise for decorrelating spurious outputs of the DRFM. 1. A coherent radio frequency memory (CRFM) for replicating an RF input signal in a manner suitable for use in a military electronic countermeasures system comprising:a digital radio frequency memory (DRFM), said DRFM including an input for receiving the RF input and an output for producing a replica of the RF input at a later time; and power limiting means at the input of the DRFM for limiting the power of the RF input to a selected level, and noise generating means coupled to the input of the DRFM. 2. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the noise source includes adjustable attenuator means for varying the level of the noise at the input of the DRFM. 3. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the power limiting means includes a saturable limiting amplifier. 4. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the power limiting means includes an amplifier for amplifying the RF input and a feedback loop including a servo amplifier and a variable voltage attenuator coupled to the amplifier input for providing negative feedback to the amplifier to thereby limit the input power of the RF signal to the optimum signal to noise ratio. 5. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the noise generating means includes an RF amplifier. 6. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the power limiting means comprises an amplifier. 7. The CRFM of claim 1, further comprising an output power limiting means for amplifying the output of said DRFM. 8. The CRFM of claim 7, wherein said output power limiting means comprises an output power amplifier, said output power amplifier being driven to saturation. 9. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein said power limiting means comprises a limiting amplifier, said limiting amplifier controlling the amplitude of the RF input and enhancing the noise floor of the DRFM to thereby obscure spurious signals. 10. The CRFM of claim 1, wherein the noise generating means comprises an amplifier having an output coupled to the DRFM input for superimposing the noise on the RF input. 11. The CRFM of claim 10, wherein the noise produced by said noise generating means is in the RF domain for decorrelating spurious outputs of the DRFM. The invention relates, in general, to coherent radio frequency memories (CRFM) and, more specifically, to digital radio frequency memories (DRFM) suitable for use in military radar countermeasure equipment. Active radar jammers are used in the field of electronic countermeasures to confuse or counter a system originating radar signals. In some situations, it is desirable to return signals to the radar system which are exact copies of the arriving radar signal. In other situations, it is desirable to return signals to the radar system which have characteristics other than that of the received radar signal in order to further confuse the radar system. In any event, it is usually necessary for the countermeasure system to store the received radar signal and to reproduce it at a later time. Previously, delay lines of various types have been used effectively to store the received radar signal for a short period of time and make the stored radar signal available at a later time. One of the disadvantages of delay lines is that the delay cannot be electronically changed easily. Also, it is difficult to obtain reasonably long delay periods without serious signal degradation. Also, delay lines are usually large and bulky. An improvement over the delay line technology has been achieved by the use of digital radio frequency memories (DRFMs) which convert relatively high radio frequency (RF) signals down to a low intermediate frequency (IF) frequency by mixing the RF with a local oscillator (LO) signal. The IF signal is then digitized for storage in a digital memory device. The digital memory can be controlled in a manner similar to that of a digital memory of a computer and the stored value representing the radar signal can be recalled and replicated at any time delay desired. Further, the manipulation of the digital values to produce changes in the replicated signal are also conveniently done by the digital process. U.S. Pat. No. 4,713,662 entitled Modulated Digital Radio Frequency Memory, in the name of Richard J. Wiegand, the inventor herein, and assigned to Westinghouse Electric Corporation, the assignee herein, discloses a variety of DRFMs including a two-channel or I&Q system as well as a modulated single channel DRFM. The I&Q or two-channel DRFM stores an RF pulse by preserving the frequency and phase of an RF input local oscillator and a sampling clock while the remainder of information is held in digital logic chips such as a RAM. In the modulated single channel DRFM in addition to preserving frequency and phase of the RF local oscillator signal, a modulation pattern for the RF local oscillator is preserved and applied to the input and output. The DRFMs described in Wiegand's patent employ one bit sampling, that is, the IF input is sampled to determine if the signal is positive or negative at each sample point. One bit sampling reduces RAM size to a minimum while allowing maximum sampling frequency and maximum amplitude dynamic range. However, the stored DRFM signal is quite non-linear resulting in numerous spectral lines or spurs in addition to the main desired coherent spectral lines. Also, an image of the input may be generated which is undesirable. While various techniques are available to significantly reduce spurs in both the I&Q and single channel DRFMs further improvement is desirable. The present invention reduces spurious spectral lines or spurs in I&Q and single channel DRFMs by employing a limiting preamplifier at the DRFM input, and by injecting an appropriate noise level. The invention is directed to a coherent radio frequency memory (CRFM) that includes a DRFM system in which a radio frequency (RF) input pulse is mixed with a local oscillator signal (LO) to produce an intermediate frequency signal (IF). The IF is converted to digital form for retrievable storage in a digital memory. The digital signal may be reconverted to analog and mixed with the local oscillator signal to replicate the RF input signal. If the DRFM system is a single channel DRFM system the local oscillator may be modulated with a wave form which is stored and replicated at the same time that the RF pulse is replicated at the output. Modulation of the LO signal further eliminates the image and the undesirable spurs. In a two-channel DRFM system, the image is cancelled at the output by combining the I&Q channels 180� out of phase. In either case a limiting amplifier is placed upstream of the DRFM input. The limiting amplifier enhances the dynamic range of the CRFM by limiting the input power of the RF input signal to a relatively constant value over a broad range of such RF inputs. Thus, the DRFM operates at an optimum level. An adjustable RF noise source is superimposed on the output of the limiting amplifier which serves to reduce spur levels. The RF noise source serves to modulate the RF signal prior to mixing with the local oscillator signal. Modulation of the local oscillator signal causes spurs, including the image, to decorrelate. Amplifier noise which is random causes very efficient decorrelation of the spurs and yet preserves the RF input. In another embodiment a negative feedback circuit provides both voltage limiting of the RF input and noise. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention featuring a DRFM with a RF limiting amplifier and an adjustable noise source coupled to the input thereof; FIG. 2 illustrates another embodiment of the present invention in which a feedback circuit provides automatic gain control and noise at the input of the DRFM; FIG. 3A is an illustration of the output spectrum of a DRFM which exhibits multiple spurs; FIG. 3B illustrates the output spectrum of the DRFM of FIG. 3A employing an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 4 is another embodiment of the present invention illustrating a limiting amplifier at the DRFM output. FIG. 1 illustrates in schematic block form, a coherent radio frequency memory 9 (CRFM) including a DRFM 10 and a spur reduction circuit 11 of the present invention. In FIG. 1 the DRFM 10 may be a single or dual channel system as set forth in the Wiegand Patent 4,713,662. The spur reduction circuit 11 includes a limiting amplifier 12 coupled to the input 14 of the DRFM 10. The RF input 16 feeds the limiting amplifier 12. The power of the RF input 16 of the limiting amplifier 12 may vary over a wide range of values. Accordingly, the limiting amplifier 12 is provided in order to attenuate or limit the amount of RF input power appearing at the input 14 of the DRFM. By limiting the RF input power, the DRFM 10 can operate in a narrow optimum range and hence provide for better performance, including better spur reduction. It is well known that DRFMs employ analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) converters (not shown). The limiting amplifier 12 by providing a constant power input to the DRFM 10 at an optimum level allows the A/D and D/A converters therein (not shown) to operate at their best speed, sensitivity and accuracy. In accordance with known DRFM techniques, the RF output 18 which is an approximation of the RF input 16 is provided at a programmed later time. A detector 20 in the form of a crystal diode is coupled to the output 22 of the limiting amplifier 12 by means of a coupler 24. Upon the occurrence of the RF input 16, the detector 20 provides an output 25 to a trigger detect circuit (not shown) which activates the DRFM 10. In accordance with the present invention, an adjustable noise source in the form of an amplifier 26 and an adjustable attenuator 28 is provided. The output of the attenuator 28 is connected to the input 14 of the DRFM by means of a coupler 30. The amplifier 26 produces random noise, the amplitude of which may be adjusted to some optimum value by means of the attenuator 28. Noise provided by the amplifier 26 is superimposed on the output 22 of the limiting amplifier 12 at the DRFM 10 input 14. The noise is truly random and will effectively decorrelate the spurs produced in the DRFM 10, especially when one bit sampling is used. FIG. 3A is a graphical representation of the output spectrum of the DRFM illustrated in FIG. 1 but without input power limiting. In FIG. 3A the amplifier 12 is operating at a relatively high power and the desired output appears at the peak 32. The image is peak 34 and the remaining peaks 36 are spurs. As a test of the principles of the invention, as the RF signal input power is lowered to achieve the same signal to noise ratio that is intended to occur in FIG. 1, the output spectrum improves. In FIG. 3B the desired output peak 32 is reduced only slightly as a result of limiting the input power by means of the limiting amplifier 12. The image peak 34 and the spurs 36 are significantly reduced, as shown. In some cases the spurs meet the noise floor 38. FIG. 2 illustrates another embodiment of the present invention in which the DRFM 10 receives an amplifier signal at input 14. The RF input 16 is coupled to RF amplifier 42 which is coupled at its output 43 to the input of a variable voltage attenuator 44. Its output 45 is input to amplifier 40. A feedback loop 45 couples the output 46 of the amplifier 40 to the variable voltage attenuator 44 via a high speed servo video amplifier 48 and crystal detector 20. The RF input to DRFM 10 is detected by means of the detector 20 and triggering circuit (not shown) in the feedback loop 45. The amplifier 48 provides negative feedback for increasing the attenuation of the variable attenuator 44 in order to reduce power of the input signal to the amplifier 40. In the configuration illustrated in FIG. 2 the high speed servo amplifier 48 provides automatic-gain-control (AGC) so that the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio remains optimum. In the embodiment of FIG. 2, RF limiting is obtained by RF amplifier 42 and RF noise is obtained from the RF amplifier 40. The video amplifier 48 has an automatic gain control (AGC) bias lead 50 which may be adjusted to optimize or trim the circuit for optimum signal-to-noise ratio. The present invention provides for reduced spur levels relative to the desired signal using a standard DRFM without significant modification. The present invention deliberately injects RF noise into the DRFM input along with the signal which helps to decorrelate the spurs. The spur suppression may be optimized by trimming the gain of the input circuit. In yet another embodiment of the present invention illustrated in FIG. 4, the DRFM 10 has a power limiting circuit (PLC) 60 at the input 14 thereof and, in addition, provides for a limiting amplifier 62 or the like at the output 18. In the arrangement of FIG. 4 the second limiting amplifier 62 on the DRFM output may serve to further suppress spurs. In addition, so called hard driving or driving the limiting amplifier 62 to saturation at a high level may also result in a better signal capture phenomena, which is a tendency of such limiting amplifier to suppress the weaker of two signals within the pass band. This also will reduce unwanted intermodulation (IM) products caused by the presence of a weak signal. Accordingly, the amplified strong replica of the RF input tends to be received by the radar source (not shown), thereby enhancing the countermeasures effect of the system.

Beth Labonte – Whitney Dineen Posted on April 4, 2016 April 28, 2016 by Whitney Dineen Beth writes fabulous chick-lit novels that are a guaranteed escape from the daily grind of life. I’m thrilled to have her as a guest today! Quit my day job. Because as much as I love sending Fed Ex’s and ordering lunches and driving home from work in blizzards, I would much rather stay home and write books. Also, it’s a much cooler answer when people ask you what you do. Visit England. Granted, most British things I love have to do with television shows and books – Doctor Who, Sherlock, Downton Abbey, everything by Sophie Kinsella – I very much want to visit the real life country. They still have those blue police boxes, right? Retire to Florida and live at The Villages so I can drive everywhere by golf cart. For more information, please read the sequel to Summer at Sea (not even remotely finished yet, but there will be golf carts). Have a book traditionally published and sold inside a Barnes & Noble. Preferably in one of those forward-facing slots on the shelf. And maybe with a poster in the window. Witness my son invent the first ever time machine. Then I will get into the time machine, travel into the future where they’ve invented anti-aging pills, steal one, swallow it, take time machine back to present day where I shall live forever. Be murdered or enslaved by robots. Have you seen Ex Machina? Have you had your iPhone spontaneously tell you how long it’s going to take to get to the exact place you were thinking of going, the second that you step into your car? Speaking of cars, you realize that Google is making a self-driving one, right? I would like to be long gone before things get out of hand. Publicly speak. You’ll notice that #4 above didn’t contain the words “Hold a book signing at Barnes & Noble.” I am happy here behind my screen, thank you. Watch The Wizard of Oz again. Run one of those challenge races through the backwoods of Maine with a bandana on my head while leaping through hot coals and assorted other completely unnecessary obstacles. I honestly can’t think of anything I’d rather do less. Well, except maybe #5. Be diagnosed with dementia. My dad had it and it’s not cool. Unless of course you get the kind where you think all the nurses and doctors are butlers and cruise staff and you’re actually pretty happy. Otherwise, no.

A Book Lover: Raw Faith by Kasey Van Norman (Review) Raw Faith by Kasey Van Norman (Review) Publisher: Tyndale House Publishers, Inc. (March 21, 2014) ISBN-10: 1414364784 ISBN-13: 978-1414364780 As a respected Bible teacher, Kasey Van Norman had dedicated her life to sharing God’s Word and encouraging women to trust in God during times of crisis. Then, just as her ministry was poised to explode, Kasey was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer that shattered her spirit and rocked her faith to its core. Sick, frightened, and in pain, Kasey suddenly found herself facing the greatest challenge of her life—believing her own message.In Raw Faith, Kasey chronicles her courageous battle with cancer, taking readers on a candid and poignant journey of faith and discovery, from the depths of despair through triumphant victory.Drawing on a variety of Bible stories and characters, Kasey discovers and distills the singular truth that has existed since time began: while change and uncertainty are inevitable, God is always unchanging, and He is always faithful—even when our circumstances might tempt us to think otherwise. This book was supposed to be a memoir about her struggle with cancer. It ended up being more of a bible study. Addressed are what she calls the toxic ds; depression, denial, and discouragement. She explains that the awful nausea she had from chemotherapy had nothing on these. She references a lot of bible stories and verses. Overall the book was okay. Kasey makes her home on a US mission field. Along with husband Justin and their two children, Kasey works and lives each day on the largest working rescue ranch in the United States. As a child rescue agent for Still Creek Ranch in Bryan, TX, Kasey helps rescue minors from abuse, neglect, and human trafficking. Kasey is a licensed professional counselor with earned degrees in psychology, public speaking, counseling, and biblical studies. Kasey founded KVM (Kasey Van Norman Ministries) in 2010.

Boundaries, Updated and Expanded Edition Audiobook | John Townsend, Henry Cloud | Audible.ca Maciej P Lukowski This was a good book on why boundaries are essential to any success in life. I liked the specific examples and a description of a person with no boundaries vs one with well defined boundaries. We all are like a city without walls waiting to be invaded when boundaries are missing. Personally, I was a child in a verbally abusive home where drug abuse was also present. There were fights and screams for which I had zero context. The lack of clear boundaries had a profound impact on me. Only now, in my 30s am I coming to grips with the damage done and that I will need to work on myself a lot to experience better relationships. Setting boundaries is very diff but so vital! I couldn't get through the content because they made references to Bible verses every few lines. I'm not opposed to Bible verses, but not when it upsets the flow of the novel. Nadine S Kim helps you understand your situation and helps you with your true relationships. highly recommend it Good content, took time to get used to narrator after listening to the lines of brene brown, the narrator on this one could have paused and inflected more. I found out hard to follow at first with all of the scripture references and chapter and heading changes. it was a bit distracting. after awhile, I did get into it. loved the chapter on parenting. there was lots of great stuff! A life changing must-read! Likely the most comprehensive book on boundaries available. I hadn't a clue boundaries could be so all-encompassing. The sheer volume of scripture and references to The Bible made me fantasize about inventing an app that could go through the book and delete all bible references. I imagine the book would be 1/3 the size after deleting scripture passages. It was judgmental and non-inclusive in some parts, even abit victim-blamey (as most fundamentally Christian-based things are) I can handle religious references but man was this book full on bible immersion school. The information on boundaries was good but if you’re not steeped in Christianity you’re probably better off buying another of the plethora of good boundary books out there. This is a biblical view I strongly recommend they announce on the cover when it’s a religious view. I am not evaluating the quality but the non transparency. I have nothing against the Bible but this is just a steady stream of quoted bible verses. Just not what I expected. This book was recommended by several friends. And now I know why! As a people pleaser, it has helped open my eyes and create boundaries so I can have healthy relationships. As some of us were raised in broken homes where boundaries were not taught, this is a HUGE help to guide us and teach us about those healthy boundaries not only for ourselves but for those around us. I highly recommend! the book has interesting views, but the continuous references to the bible make it a strenuous read

Tomato Red by Daniel Woodrell | Book Lover's Blog Posted on May 31, 2006 by willbranthicks I had never heard of Daniel Woodrell before one of my recent weekly sweeps through Publisher’s Weekly. I’ve read a fair amount of literature about Appalachia (not nearly enough, but is it ever enough?) but not about the Ozark region, which is Woodrell’s main focus. He’s from that area originally, and his writing emphasis is on folks who live poor and hard, are often violent, and usually reside in a setting outside "nice" America. Such is the situation with Tomato Red, a book I picked out for the title, and by the finish of the flyleaf, was sucked in to Woodrell’s universe. Our main character is Sammy Barlach, recently out of prison and on the road to nowhere. His road drops him off at West Table, Missouri, a small town of haves and have nots. A dare to burglarize a local mansion acquaints him with Jamalee and Jason Merredew, siblings who will do anything to get out of a squalor-filled future in West Table, preferably away from their mother, who lives next to them and turns tricks for a vocation. What they will do to accomplish this winds up involving Sammy in ways he never knew. I enjoyed the book, although it is not for the squeamish. It’s a page turner and fairly short. Woodrell has a unique manner of phrasing and a highly twisted sense of humor. What could have been a completely gritty and tragic story (and it is in a lot of places) made me laugh out loud at several points, as Sammy and the others try to make sense out of a series of quandaries, including taking on shady cops and the town country club crowd. Woodrell has a new one coming out soon (Winter’s Bone) and I am really curious to see what he does with it.

No 75th anniver... No 75th anniversay meeting Still not happy that the company decided the salesforce was not worthy of the expense to have a 75th anniversary meeting. Yes, they did take 170 or so of the most deserving reps to Vegas, but the rest of the salesforce didnt seem to count in FY 2012. Too many changes, and certainly not many of them are for the best. They didn't have a meeting as they didn't have anything to say except the same ole B/S. Those that went to Vagas were sorry they did.

With a growing number of Obamacare's provisions taking effect, both supporters and opponents of the health care law are bracing for the impacts that Obamacare will have on the health care industry and the way millions of Americans get health-insurance coverage. But yesterday's decision from the Obama administration to put off implementation of potential fines on large employers that choose not to provide health insurance for their employees puts a new wrinkle in the controversial provisions, especially since the move appears to favor large businesses at the expense of ordinary individuals who'll still face penalties of their own come Jan. 1.Understanding the penalty provisionsUntil yesterday, the various Obamacare penalty provisions for those who attempted to bypass the law's insurance-coverage requirements had an attractive symmetry to them. For individuals, penalties of $95 per adult and $47.50 per child, up to a family maximum of $285 or 1% of income above the tax-filing threshold, apply to individuals who don't have eligible insurance and who don't qualify for one of the exemptions to the provisions. Low-income families would likely be exempt, and others would have to compare the costs of an Obamacare-compliant policy against their income to find out whether the availability of what the law calls affordable coverage would result in a penalty.Meanwhile, the employer fines would apply to employers with 50 or more employees working at least 30 hours a week, with companies paying annual penalties of $2,000 per uninsured worker. The law exempts companies from paying fines on the first 30 uninsured employees, but other provisions impose potentially higher fines if employers provide coverage that's too expensive and therefore triggers federal tax-credit subsidies to help employees cover their costs.Furthering the symmetry, both of these provisions were slated to take effect at the beginning of 2014. Now, though, that has changed, and an uproar is likely to result as those with differing political views come to their own conclusions about the reasoning behind the move.What happened yesterday?In yesterday's announcement, the administration set back the date for employer fines to take effect until the beginning of 2015. Cynics have noted that the new date is comfortably after the midterm elections, although the administration argued that it was merely responding to calls from employers who argued that making changes to benefits to take the 30-hour-a-week threshold into account was more complicated than it would seem to ordinary workers.The delay isn't the first for Obamacare. Back in April, the administration had to delay the planned national insurance marketplace known as the Small Business Health Options Program until 2015, benefiting insurance carriers Aetna , UnitedHealth , and WellPoint by giving them more time to figure out how to comply with the small-business provisions of the health care law. The move also has ramifications for employer fines, as the program was narrowed to allow employers to choose only a single plan rather than a broader set of plan choices. As Fool contributor Keith Speights observed at the time, that might lead some midsize employers to drop their coverage rather than getting shunted into a single and potentially inadequate plan.Will Congress object?Interestingly, as the Washington Post's Ezra Klein noted last night, the administration's decision not to enforce Obamacare's penalty provisions doesn't change the fact that they remain on the books as law. The situation puts Congress in the strange position of having the president challenge its law-making ability on a law that the president supported and that a substantial portion of Congress would prefer to see repealed.The biggest fallout, though, might well come from individuals who supported the law but who counted on equal treatment of businesses and employees. Without a similar one-year break from individual penalties, you'll find plenty of penalty-payers next year arguing about the unfairness of giving employers a break from fines.The real test for ObamacareIn any event, the biggest challenge that Obamacare faces is getting its Health Insurance Marketplace up and running by Oct. 1. Although private exchanges from Marsh & McLennan subsidiary Mercer as well as Towers Watson have done a good job of getting Aetna, UnitedHealth, and other popular insurers to participate in their programs, the reception that public exchanges have gotten has been far less favorable. Without a smooth launch in less than three months, Obamacare could find itself facing much greater criticism than it is today.Still uncertain about how Obamacare might affect your personal finances and your portfolio?

This was confirmed by measurements which gave a value K = 1-22 for the composite rod compared to K = 1-33 for the uniform rod at 9-4 GHz. The radiation-pattern equations indicate that the beamwidth of the composite should be greater than the uniform-rod beamwidth. This is seen to be the case at frequencies below the stopband, but the opposite is true for frequencies above the stopband. The equation suggests that the angular positions of the sidelobes should lie closer to the main beam for the uniform rod than for the composite rod, and this was found to be the case. The equation also indicates that the first sidelobe levels should be approximately 4-6 dB greater for the uniform rod, and this is found to be the case above the stopband, but appears to be somewhat less below the stopband. Since the increased gain property of a composite structure is not a surface-wave-propagation effect, an explanation in terms of the modifying influence of the rod structures on the direct radiation from the feed waveguide3-4 appears to be more likely.

The effects of transistor mismatches and of limited current gain are analysed. Experimental results are given which show a considerable improvement over previous circuits. In many integrated circuits, for example multipliers,1 the first stage is a differential voltage-current convertor, consisting of a simple differential pair with a feedback resistor RE between the emitters. This circuit gives satisfactory performances only if the resistance RE is large compared with the dynamic resistance of the transistors; otherwise the overall transconductance of the circuit is strongly temperature dependent and essentially nonlinear. On the other hand, a high value of RE increases the noise, and this again limits the dynamic range. The circuit proposed (Fig. la) performs a precision low-distortion voltage-current conversion, even with low values of RE, thus improving the dynamic range. Consider the sum of the voltages around the loop comprising the signal generator, the base-emitter voltages of Tr ls Tr4, Tr2 and Tr3 and the feedback resistor RE: v ~VBEl8-5 VBEt - iRE+ VBE2 + VBE3 = 0 9-0 9-5 frequencyjGHz Eqn. 1 can also be written as follows: v-iRE + , '2 'S2 Fig. 2 Beamwidth and sidelobe levels against frequency for both rods % uniform rod / composite rod /3 _|n/ci 'S3 'SI where Is are the reverse saturation currents. ELECTRONICS LETTERS 22nd March 1973 Vol.9 If the transistors are perfectly matched, and the current gains are high enough to neglect the base currents, eqn. 2 collapses to the simple form R, Secondly, the variable current / is no longer linearly dependent on the input voltage. With X = 2i/I0, the collector currents can be written as which describes the behaviour of a distortionless temperatureindependent voltage-current convertor with a transconductance uniquely set by the resistor RE. Note that the only hypotheses used in deriving eqn. 3 and eqn. 2 becomes '"(W) v-iRE+ q f l + X(2a-l) I 1-X(2a-1) If the current is small, x is small with respect to unity and we can consider only the first two terms of the power expansion of the logarithm; with simple mathematics, we obtain qh 3 qlo V Fig. 1a Fig. "\b Voltage-current convertor Alternative configuration The overall effect is a reduction of the circuit transconductance, which becomes slightly temperature-dependent, and the introduction of 3rd-order harmonic distortion; currentgain mismatches will introduce additional 2nd-order distortion. The circuit has been experimentally verified using an integrated transistor array,* with 7? = 600Q and / 0 = 500 fiA. The measured performances are reported in Fig. 2, which gives the peak value of the output current Ic\IC3, normalised to Io, and the 3rd-order distortion attenuation D3 as a function of the input peak voltage normalised to Vo = RE(I0/2). For comparison, the measured performances of the simple degenerated differential pair made with the same components are also shown. concern the matching and current gains of the transistors; so the result holds for any value of the input voltage v and of the feedback resistor RE, until the currents are sufficient to keep the current gain high and validate the expression for the base-emitter voltage drop adopted in eqn. 2. The maximum input voltage is limited by saturation of Tr2 and Tr 4 , biased at VCB = 0; this limitation can be overcome by adding levelshifting stages. An alternative application of the proposed circuit is shown in Fig. \b. This configuration has the same behaviour as the previous one, but with a better frequency response, owing to the common-base operation of the transistors, and without voltage-swing limitation. The input impedance seen 'looking into' the emitters of Tr2 and Tr 4 is, in theory, zero, independent of the bias current l0. The operation of the circuit can be also explained as a unity-gain positive-feedback which increases to infinite gain in the negative-feedback loop set by resistor RE, thus reducing to zero any error in the voltage-current conversion. At high frequencies, parasitic inductances can lead to a small negative resistance between the emitters of Tr2 and Tr 4 ; so, to overcome stability problems, RE must not be too low. In the configuration of Fig. \a, the internal resistance of the voltage generator can also lead to instability; a small capacitor between the bases of Trx and Tr 3 is sufficient to avoid this possibility. Transistor mismatch does not alter the performances of the circuits. In this case, eqn. 2 becomes v+ (4) -io S 60 n Q -10 v/V o . dB Fig. 2 Measured output current and 3rd-order distortion attenuation against input voltage RE ^ 600 Q; r0 = 500 fiA - proposed circuit degenerated differential pair which shows that an input offset voltage is present, but the transconductance and linearity are not affected. Let us now consider the effect of limited current gain, with the simplified hypothesis of current gain being equal for all transistors and constant for any bias current. We must consider two effects. First the variable component of the output current is reduced with respect to the current i by a constant factor dependent on the current gain; straightforward analysis gives, in fact, (5) The measured performances show good agreement with theory, and the improvement with respect to the simple differential-pair stage is substantial, with a minimum number of extra components.

Extension of lockdown comes with relaxations; will this help kickstart the economy?, BFSI News, ET BFSI Extension of lockdown comes with relaxations; will this help kickstart the economy? As per a Bloomberg report, the GDP is expected to take a significantly large hit despite green zones starting economic activities this week. May 06, 2020, 18:06 IST As the number of coronavirus cases in India continue to rise, we have now entered the third phase of the lockdown. It has been extended to May 18 from a previous date of May 4 in light of the number of cases in hotspot areas intensifying. This third phase of the lockdown however, is different in the sense that the government has allowed certain relaxations in terms of economic activity. What are these relaxations? Besides the essential goods and services, a few more activities have now been permitted – standalone shops in the neighborhood, industrial activity in specific zones, e-commerce delivery of essential goods for households, private offices with only one-third of the staff and construction activities as long as workers stay on site. What impact does this have on the economy? The above-mentioned activities account for roughly 15-20% of our GDP, according to a Bloomberg report. However, since now the country has been divided into red, orange and green zones, the scale at which these activities will start functioning back to normal is expected to be very staggered. We also need to keep in mind that major economic activities that lead to a spur of expenditure from the consumer side such as shopping malls, markets, theatres, educational institutes and transport (air, rail and road) continue to remain closed. These activities too account for roughly 15-20% of the GDP. Hence, in order the kickstart the economy and expect some recovery in our GDP growth numbers, these will eventually have to be permitted. The report expects a 25% contraction in the GDP with a 30% output loss in May. Source: Bloomberg LP Report In an earlier interaction with ETBFSI, Madan Sabnavis, Chief Economist at CARE Ratings, had predicted a further extension of the lockdown post May 3. “Given that the economy takes at least three months to normalize, realistically speaking, it can function at 50% capacity only post August. As the shutdown extends, it is natural that the GDP growth rates will be rolled back. The IMF has 1.9% under assumptions of the second half being normal. Now if we lose another month or two, the downgrade will be sharper. We should remember that given the job loss, cuts in income and low corporate performance, it is unlikely that there will emerge the pent-up demand phenomenon that we saw in the earlier shock of demonetization” he said. Hence, as the data suggests, the relaxations do not necessarily hint towards a spur in economic growth. We can only expect that to take place post the flattening of the curve. Hence, the impact of these relaxations in all the 3 different zones will be closely observed in order to plan an efficient lockdown-exit strategy, and we can only expect the numbers to start getting better post the second half of FY21.

Live.Laugh.Love: Misses... There are lots of things and people for that matter that I miss...Just last night, Mike and I HAD to see our beloved dog Channing...so we called up his parents (whom he is staying with for the week) and asked if we could G-chat. If you know anything about new age technology, which is freaking awesome these days, you don't have to be anywhere close to the person (or dog in our case) to be able to SEE them...coolness! So if you have Skype or G-mail (you can g-chat or video chat if your computer allows that), you can keep up with loved ones far away...so we did...we got on the video chat and totally acted like "those crazy people" talking to Channing, who seemed to want nothing to do with us and also seemed confused that he heard us, but clearly wasn't seeing our bodies. We also chat with Mike's sister, Laura, who is living in England and finishing up business school. I think we both miss her a lot. But...we are fortunate that we get to take a week long trip to England this summer in order to celebrate her graduation and do really fun things! (which hopefully will be planned out before we get there, I know I have NO idea what to do...but since Laura is there along with her BF and his family, I am sure we will be dazzled!) As of recently (this past weekend), I am also without grandparents...they have all passed on and are hopefully looking down on me and feeling proud of the young woman that I have become. My Uncle is up there too. Looking back on things, I wish I could have gotten more out of my relationships with them...but when you are young you tend to be overcome with so many things that learning about your grandparents, their heritage, their struggles, their history and what makes them who they are isn't a top priority...but I wish it had been in my case. Now I can't just ask them how they managed through the Great Depression, or how they have seen society and the world change so vastly from the time they were little girls and little boys. These memories are lost in time for me and I can try my best to piece things from pictures or through stories from my parents, but it just won't be the same. I guess instead of trying to bring on the pity party, I want to express that if you are lucky enough to still have these wonderful people in your life, that you take the time to visit them, call them, find out who they really are and gain all the knowledge you can...I can guarantee it will be worth it in the end. Ok, enough of the super sadness (as I wipe my tears...) I miss other things too... I miss not having enough time in my day to get the bajillion items I want done (although I did pretty good yesterday...and almost got all my little addictions in too...sushi dinner with the husband, cleaned 1/2 the house, tv junkie at bed time...still no soda...ugh!) I miss not being able to spend enough time with family...and by family, I mean my parents/sister/her husband and kids and Mike's parents (and sister, but that comes this Summer!!)...I think not being in the same town doesn't really help, but I am such a HUGE family oriented person. I look forward to beach trips and ski/snowboard trips to Smugg's...even just hanging out for the night...I yearn to have family time and be close. I feel like I have missed out on my "Aunt" duties by not being so close....every time I see the munchkins they are taller, can talk more, know more stuff than I do and are loosing front teeth to that darned tooth fairy! I also miss not having spent lots of time with my 2 cousins and their wives (and the adorable new baby Matthew!) and my Uncle Tom and Aunt Sue... I miss not spending more time with my amazing friends! Whether the friends are close to me now or living in WV (shout out to my E$), I really wish that I felt I had more time to just be around them...even if during the week...which I know can be crazy since with work and dinner and working out, when do you fit in "fun" time with friends...that's what the weekends are for, right? But I want more...lots more...luckily I was able to spend some great time with a few friends for a ski trip out in Canaan Valley this past weekend. What more could you want: friends, food, yummy beverages, a HUGE house, and a HOT TUB...awesome...let's do it again next year! I also miss my what I consider to be "crafty days"...way back in high school I actually took multimedia art class, stained glass class...and maybe some other things. I also learned in college from my teammate and assistant coach how to MAKE purses by using a sewing machine and buying cloth at the store...I felt so creative, like I was letting out some untamed beast that just wanted to make crafts...I felt pretty good at it too...but then I got "busy" (school, work, etc...you name the excuses...) and completely forgot how to do it...boo hiss...I have received instructions, but I think I am too chicken to try it again and mess up-get super frustrated-and give up with a mess of fabric and knots all over the place and have me stomping around the house with a pouty face (it would SO happen...) I guess I feel the urge to be creative since a lot of my friends are into making jewelry and all lately...and they are gorgeous...check out these (made by my friend Erin) and also these lovely little clusters(made by my friend Marisa)... SOOOOO pretty! I miss the fact that my body keeps feeling so OLD...I still play volleyball (which my sister got me into at a young age...funny stories about that I will share later)...but I have always had back problems...so while I regularly play sports and work out, I also regularly see a chiropractor for my aching back... I miss days without stress...I am pretty sure I live in a stress bubble (just ask Mike). I have that type A personality where everything has to be done YESTERDAY...it's horrible, but I have tried to fix this and I seem to get no where-Mike helps me to just chill out (thank goodness!) or I would in all likelihood just flip out on a moment's notice. My mind is always rambling with things to do...which can range from work, to working out, to finances and paying things, to what are we doing for dinner tonight and where are we going this weekend...it's a constant buzz up there...I wish I could just dump it out and feel the peace and serenity that I know I could if I would just mellow out a bit...which is why I think I need to start some kind of yoga practice or meditation...to fully open up my mind and release all these little demons wreaking havoc on my mind and body...it's time! I miss the days of college, in the fact that when I go out and party like a rockstar these days, I sure DO NOT feel like a rockstar the next morning, or even afternoon...sometimes not even for a couple days! I have no clue how I managed to live back then! Even though I was a D1 collegiate athlete, we found time to go out mid-week and on weekends...I can remember one time I went out with my at the time roomie (Candice) and our other "party pal" (CJ) to our favorite bar for some drink specials on a Wednesday night (I think)...I remember thinking...I have to get up really early for lifting (as in heavy lifting of weights/workout) at 7 am....yes, 7 AM...so I partied all night and probably got in after 2 (when the bar would close down) ...pass out smelling like smoke (thank goodness for no smoking bars in VA now)...groggily woke up, got myself together in time to scramble to weight lifting...and I proceeded to do my workout! (ok, karma may have gotten me that day...I was doing box jumps on the tallest box, totally missed, and scraped off most of my shin onto this lovely black box of death...didn't feel too amazingly rockstar-ish after that one...went to get bandaged and came back to finish the workout...)...what I wuldn't do to be able to handle myself the next morning...instead I am a glob of a person, laying in bed and feeling completely worthless to all...don't even ask me to do anything, it's not happening til after 5 pm...for serious! Well, enough jibber jabber from this gal, Happy Thursday (it's almost Friday...be optimistic!)

It does not depend! | The Comparative Advantage It does not depend! April 10, 2009 — sherfelad If you can say that there is one thing common to all MBA classes, I think it is this: there is one answer you hear from all the professors: it depends. Accounting, economics, and organizational behaviour… in all of these classes I have been hearing the same tune: it depends. It varies by professor. Some never say what they actually think or what they will actually do if they were presented with a certain situation, only present the various options. Some, hint to what they actually think. You know what? When you think about it, this might even be a good thing. after all, a good manager should be able to see all sides of an issue before he makes a decision, right? But still, sometime I feel there is misalignment here. That the teachings err on the side of caution. That the fear to say something concrete and get it wrong just overwhelms all other considerations. Because in real life, after weighing all the evidence, a manger has to make a decision. Even if it is the wrong one. Even if there is still uncertainty involved. And a manager needs to be able to back his decision and explain its merits, even if the data he is partial. This week I attended a conversation on photovoltaic with David Jordan, Director of Business Development for the UNSW Engineering Faculty. He used to work for BP and told us that when they presented a project in order to get funding as part of the capital investment process, they were not allowed to use the word “contingent”.

Believe, Witness Miracles: Body-Needs Exercise: what does your body NEED? I remember in college wishing myself and all my friends "Happy Singles Awareness Day." When you're happy in a relationship, Valentine's day can be really fun,... or it can be a hassle and one more thing to remember. When you're not in a happy relationship, though, Valentine's day can be miserable. So I wanted to write for a minute this potentially-emotional morning about emotions and how they work. There are many different facets to emotions and their dealings, but the point I wanted to focus on today is the role of our physical bodies as co-creators of our emotions. Did you know anxiety and even depression can be caused by dehydration? Our bodies are tools; they are machines; they are powerful creators with powerful needs. When our bodies' needs are not being met, our bodies can manufacture the molecules (or "brain chemistry") of emotion to try and get our attention. Last year or the year before, I was having a truly terrible time dealing with my two-year-old. Just thinking about her would give me heart palpitations. I loved her--but I just couldn't be near her. A single touch from her would make my skin crawl. One day I was telling a friend about this and my struggle. I was releasing emotions like crazy, doing tons of energy work on myself and my child and our relationship, and yet my body would still physically react to this kid. I couldn't figure it out. Fortunately, in addition to being energetically gifted, my friend was also a nutritionist. She said: "Oh, don't feel bad. Don't feel guilty. It's just your body trying to give you a message. You're nutritionally depleted and manufacturing emotions of trauma is the only way your body has to tell you." When she explained it, it made so much sense. I'd been pregnant, nursed Baby #1 through my pregnancy with Baby #2 (the child in question), and then nursed Baby #2 all through my pregnancy with Baby #3--and I was still nursing this two-year-old even though I was also nursing her baby brother. The fact was, my body was nutritionally depleted. It was really struggling to keep up with so much nursing and the fact was, my two-year-old was very able to sustain herself on regular food. I didn't loathe my toddler; not really. My body was reacting with heart palpitations, stress, and skin-crawly-feelings when she came close because it was trying to tell me: STOP NURSING THIS KID!! REPLETE YOUR NUTRIENTS!!! What a blessing that I figured out that then, instead of honestly believing I didn't like my child. I love my girl and I am so glad she's in my life. But my body was being physically depleted of nutrients by the nature of my relationship with her, and something had to change--so my body reacted by creating negative emotional feelings in an attempt to get my conscious attention. If I had been listening to my body more closely, maybe I would have weaned her sooner. As soon as she was weaned, our relationship and my emotions around her got SO much better. Bodies create emotions to get our attention One book I highly recommend is called Your Body's Many Cries For Water. Go read the book, but one highlight for me was learning that the body can manufacture emotions of anxiety and depression for the primary purpose of getting us to realize we arethirsty. Your body says-- "I AM ANXIOUS FOR WATER!!!" and so many times, we don't understand the message. Isn't that just how it goes? Pardon the use of the Lord's name in vain, I couldn't find an edited version. But our bodies try so hard to communicate their needs to us, and so many times, we end up thinking, "guess we'll never know." Today, I invite you to consider the possibility that some of your negative daily emotions have a nutritional root. I invite you to drink more water than you think you need, say NO to a sugary Valentine's dessert that will only place your body under even more stress, and eat some vegetables! And here is an exercise you can do today to get a little more in touch with your body and how it's fulfilling its role as a co-creator of your emotions. Body-Needs Exercise (for Valentine's Day!) First, get out a pen and paper. You're going to start by writing about the most irritating emotion you regularly experience. Depression/sadness, "numb" emptiness, irritability, anxiety, frustration, worry. Whatever it is, write it down. Write down how it makes you feel in your body when you think about it. Does your stomach feel tighter? Does your forehead get tight? Does your throat feel dry? What physical body sensations do you feel when you think about this emotion you deal with? Now go ahead and take a few deep breaths. Put the pen or pencil down. Cover your eyes with your hands and just breathe. When you feel your body relax into your hands, go ahead and ask yourself: "Body, do you have a message for me with this emotion? Is there something you are trying to tell me that will help me experience better emotions?" And then just listen. As ideas come to you, write them down--ALL of them, no matter how silly or weird they sound. Don't judge them, just write. Maybe your body will have a message for you: "I need more water." "I need more magnesium." "I need less sugar." "I need to relax and rest." "I need more sleep." "I need more peace." You can set a timer for 5-10 minutes and just commit to listening to your body for that amount of time. When it's done, you're done for now. Take a look at what you wrote down and pray about it. Ask God for a verification: is this a message I should take seriously? And if the answer is yes, the next step is to make a plan for how to serve your body better in the future. Oh, friends, I wish you the happiest Valentine's day!! I hope this exercise comes in handy and that you listen to the messages your body might have for you today. If you do this exercise, please write me back and let me know how it goes. Sending you all some happy V-day vibes!!! ​​​​​​​allie

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told an international climate conference Tuesday that it was time to "prove wrong" those who still have doubts about global warming. Ban told reporters after his speech that richer countries, including the U.S., "should take leadership" on climate change because they have the resources and technology to address the problem. On Tuesday, Britain announced two initiatives to support renewable energy in Africa and a water management program that it said would help 18 million poor people become more resilient to climate change. The initiatives, totaling 133 million pounds ($214 million) over the next three years, were welcomed by climate activists. Super Terrific Japanese Thing: Behold the Elfoid!

Light! WPhotoC | Ouch!! My back hurts!! ← SKY – Ailsa’s WTT Light, Sea And Sky! → Light! WPhotoC Posted on 01/12/2013 by aj vosse I often see the weekly challenges coming is… the titles, and then starts a personal mental game. Here in Europe, they arrive in the inbox by mid afternoon… so, without digging a dark hole for myself as I’m usually at work, I don’t dare click into the post to read. That leaves me with a few moments of reflection and an afternoon of wondering. What could be the association with the title? Then the game gets into full swing… I think of possible photos or scenes that could fit. Second guessing is fun because it allows me the pleasure of imagination. What shall I say or post? Will there be an element of fun? Will I take fresh photos or will I dig deep or shallow in the monthly folders? Remember, these are all fleeting thoughts as I’m still at work. Let’s just say the alter-ego is allowed 5% intrusion space… OK… all this challenge has asked of us is an illumination. Light, photo… that’s the first reminder Ben suggests. Truth. That’s another angle. Truth is light. Correct? Yes. OK, I say again. I was going to take bright and cheery late autumn illuminations. I was going to put together one of the beloved galleries… until I downloaded the photo’s I took while out on Thursday night. There’s a certain truth to this photo. That horrid building that I’m trying to capture in the background is named Liberty Hall. Many in Dublin and for that matter, Ireland, have asked for the place to be imploded. Why? It’s the home of the labour movements here in the Republic. What’s wrong with that? Can’t we all be allowed our freedom of expression? Yes we can. However, when the lot that frequent that place begin their ideological clap trap and mind bending then it’s always well to have a little illumination. Fat cats… sucking the blood out of the economy with their constant treats in the name of the supposed underprivileged worker. OK… I’ll shut up… no, why should I? The latest carry-on here in Ireland is the threat of industrial action by the leading state semi-owned energy provider. Let there be darkness, mostly during the cold of winter and the Christmas period. How entertaining? Hold the greater Dublin (and Irish) population hostage because the union fat cats are afraid they’ll miss out on their gilt-lined nest eggs? Have they again forgotten the pain of the private sector? I’m sorry… the place needs illumination… OK, not the place… it needs implosion. The folk who work there need to see the light. Your belief in dead communist or socialist norms doesn’t belong… anywhere! Don’t threaten us with your darkness… I will say a few extra words. I HATE the concept of collective labour bargaining. Why? Because most, I reiterate, most are based on communist or socialist principles. In my eyes there can be nothing as abhorrent as the oppression and slaughter this system has inflicted on human kind. Nothing! No, not even national socialism. Read history and you’ll see where I’m coming from. That’s why, when I saw the image of that despicable man-made tower of corruption so well captured behind metaphorical physical barriers I couldn’t resist taking the photo… let there be illumination… of the mind, of the soul! I’ll conclude… this is a time I’ll march on a building, peacefully… sorry, I’ve just admitted to wanting to do what those scrotes do so easily!! Churchill said… two fingers up to all those who want to hold us hostage… not only do I agree… I admit to coining the phrase… This entry was posted in #Dublin, #Ireland, Factual Opinion, Photography, Writing and tagged #Architecture, #autobiographical, #buildings, #creative writing, #Dublin, #experience, #Hemingway, #ideas, #Ireland, #life, #light, #memyblog, #my blog, #night photography, #passion, #past, #street photography 🎨, #winter ❄, #writing ✒📖, DPchallenge, Dublin streets, Irish politics, jobs, opinion, pain, postaday, pride, streets, Weekly Photo Challenge:, WordPress, work.

P. J. PROBY - EMI's "70th Birthday" CD project: Just sent EMI my finished liner notes... I just handed in my liner notes for the CD. What I have done is written a mini biography and anecdotes for each included song. I hope EMI and PJ likes it all. I must again pay tribute to the Probyans who have helped me along the way. They are some of the nicest people I have met whilst working on a project like this. Full of great ideas and constructive comments. "Thank you" - you all know who you are! One final thing, this weekend I got a CD of photos from my visit on the 10 April to EMI's archives. I think from what I have now seen we have found the perfect cover and back sleeve. Above is the EMI owned shot I'd like to see used on the back of the CD. Hope you all like it! Posted by Stephen M - The Project Coordinator at 9:24 am

Panera | Eat Like Alton Panera, What Happened To The Good Salads? Posted in Eat like Alton On The Go, Everyday Foods, tagged Diet, Eat Like Alton, Eating, eating on the go, food, Health, Panera, salad on February 23, 2011| Leave a Comment » I am a graphic designer. That means that I layout projects that end up being printed as posters, brochures, postcards and more. I do this with a great team of people and 4 times a year we produce a brochure we call our Quarterly. When the Quarterly is on press, one of the designers goes on a press check, which means we go to the printers and look at the sheets as they come off the press and approve the printing and the color. Our Quarterly happens to be printed near a Panera, so we do lunch from Panera each time we’re on press. Today I tried to Eat Like Alton, even spent time thinking about it in advance. This was going to be a great time to get in some leafy greens (on the everyday list) and I recall at one point having a salad there with salmon and wheat berries – double score (oily fish and whole grains). This was going to be a breeze. Then I looked at the menu. While all the salad descriptions sounded good at first pass, they were all basic variations on romaine lettuce with chicken. Some came with bacon, some with almonds, one even comes with a drizzle of “BBQ sauce”. (Ewww.) With the exception of one (Fuji Apple Chicken) they all are made with romaine lettuce. I know everyone isn’t trying to Eat Like Alton, but isn’t everyone into organic and micro greens and variety. I was surprised to find all of their salads so…normal and average. But, it is tradition and I needed to get leafy greens in, so I chose the Chopped Chicken Cobb salad. Here’s how my thought process went: I don’t like red peppers, I don’t want tasty crispy wontons to tempt me, BBQ sauce on salad sounds gross, caesar is usually good IF the dressing is good and I don’t want apples in my salad…Chopped Chicken Cobb it is. Looking back, I should have chosen Fuji Apple Chicken with fruit, nuts and leafy greens and just forced my way through the apples. Then the salad came. When I eat out, I like to eat things I can’t or won’t make at home. This salad was utterly disappointing. Salads I make at home look better. The lettuce was pale, the tomatoes were winter tomatoes (anemic and cold-tasting, not juicy and summer-tasting), the eggs were rubbery and the dressing was pretty ordinary. Come on Panera, I know your called Panera Bread not Panera Salad, but you can do better than this. Toss in some other greens – spinach would be easy as would chopped herbs; use thicker bacon; toss in some avocado; make salad dressing that doesn’t taste like it comes out of a vat; and have some other protein options…chicken gets boring, especially chicken that looks like the precooked chicken they sell in any grocery store. I’m pretty sure in the past I have had good salads at Panera, even great ones. I’m not sure when the menu change happened, but I’m hoping it is seasonal or a temporary thing due to the economy. When I get a salad at a restaurant, I want it to be bright, bursting with flavor and freshness. I want to feel healthy eating it and I want to feel better about myself because I made a better food choice while I have to watch other people eating a burger and fries. And I want good tomatoes. Is that too much to ask? Normally I wouldn’t think of Panera as fast food, to me fast food is fried and has a drive-through. But my salad today makes me wonder if this is bad food karma for crossing the ‘never’ line. (This photo is 1/2 of the salad, I’m saving the other 1/2 for lunch tomorrow. And yes, I do often eat at my computer and yeah, it’s a Mac!)

Potty training…again… | thoughtsfromoutsidemybrain Potty training…again… I am trying to potty train child 3. Child 1 and 2 were trained at just aged 3. I don’t recall it being this much hard work. Said toddler will be 4 in April. I have been trying to potty train him for months and months. I have tried bribery, we have books on the subject. But he is stubborn. More stubborn than I could ever imagine. Today we have tried again. My husband has made the white pants gang. Brown bear and Big bear are wearing white pants. We wrestled the unwilling toddler into his white pants. The two bears have done a wee on the potty (with the aid of some water!). The toddler has yet to wee. And it’s nearly 4pm. He woke up with a dry nappy. He can hold. He appears to be in no discomfort. I have placed him on the potty. He will not go. I know as soon as I put a nappy on, he will wee. He fully understand what he is supposed to do. He loves the Pirate Pete potty book. I am assuming he is just extremely stubborn. But the time has come for me to be more stubborn. There will be no nappy until bedtime (ironically, he’s dry through the night). I have started to worry that he will be the only child in nappies when he starts school in September. I am desperate! He doesn’t appear to be desperate though! He’s happily playing. Oh, to have the bladder capacity of a 3 year old. If any readers have any tips, please let me know! ← Got an MOT and service 2 Responses to “Potty training…again…” Reblogged this on thoughtsfromoutsidemybrain and commented: He’s still not wee’d Lisa,I am still struggling with the twins *sigh* I fear nappies at school!! Am about to try again when my washing machine is fixed this week! Good Luck x

Darul Haris: ALMOND MILK Darul Haris ALMOND MILK Here are some facts about ALMOND MILK which is very beneficial to your health: It's lactose free One of the health benefits of almond milk is that it's lactose free. Surprisingly, up to three quarters of the world's population is lactose intolerant, meaning they have difficulty digesting the sugar found in cow's milk. The result can be bloating, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. If you suffer bloating after consuming milk products, almond milk can give you the opportunity to enjoy the taste of milk symptom free. It can also be used in baking and for virtually every other application cow's milk might be used for. It's free of antibiotics and growth hormones People are increasingly concerned about the injections of antibiotics and growth hormone that many milk producing cows receive during their lifetime. The concern is that antibiotic injections may cause allergic reactions and other toxic side effects and may even increase the risk of certain types of cancer. Plus, antibiotic usage in milk cows contributes to the problem of antibiotic resistance which has become a worldwide problem. Growth hormone in the milk supply is thought to increase levels of IGF-1 in humans which can promote the growth of certain cancers. This is where almond milk shines. It's completely free of these harmful additives. It's nutritionally rich Almonds almost always make the list of nature's healthiest foods and for good reason. Almonds are a rich source of magnesium and Vitamin E, as well as selenium, and manganese. Most commercial almond milk manufacturers fortify their almond milk with additional calcium. Almond skins are also a rich source of flavonoids which help to protect the heart. Almonds have been shown in studies to lower levels of LDL cholesterol as well as protect against heart disease and cholesterol. Plus, they're high in protein and low in carbohydrates. The health benefits of almonds to the cardiovascular system are considerable. It's low in calories You can buy unsweetened almond milk manufactured by Almond Breeze that has only forty calories per serving. Compare this to the ninety calories per serving found in skim cow's milk and 150 calories per serving found in full fat cow's milk. Almond milk clearly emerges the winner in the calorie department. It tastes great Of the alternative milks, most people prefer the taste of almond milk over soy milk and rice milk which means you'll drink more of it and get the wonderful health benefits of almond milk. The health benefits of almond milk as well as its pleasing taste make it a nice alternative to traditional cow's milk for both sipping and baking. It's available in some supermarket chains as well as a variety of natural food markets nationwide. Why not give it a try? ~Innovative and Creative Times

Beijing Diary: Radcliffe gives it a go as China plays rent-a-yellow-crowd card | Daily Mail Online Beijing Olympic Games Diary: Radcliffe gives it a go as China plays rent-a-yellow-crowd card Updated: 16:25 EST, 12 August 2008 Paula Radcliffe wishes she had more time to recover from the thigh injury she suffered in May but has decided to 'give it a go' in Sunday's Beijing Olympics marathon. The 34-year-old world record holder admits she would not have pushed herself as hard for any other race and that there have been times when she feared she would not make the startline. 'Of course, I could do with a bit more time, but (I'll) just go in and give it a go,' said Radcliffe. Beijing dream: Paula Radcliffe 'That's a hundred times better than watching on TV. If it was a big city marathon or even a World Championships (I'd say) do not push it, make sure I was well prepared. But I do not want to sit there watching it wondering what could have happened.' Radcliffe, who dropped out of the 2004 marathon in Athens with dehydration, was diagnosed with a stress fracture to her left femur in May. That appeared to have ended her Beijing hopes but Radcliffe was determined not to give up on her Olympics dream and insists she is better equipped to succeed at the weekend than she was in Athens. 'I'd rather go in like this than the shape I was in back in 2004 when I was not well,' she stressed. 'There were times in the last 12 weeks when I thought "How can this be happening, has someone put a jinx on me?" But then I'd go to bed and think "No this is the Olympics, I'm not going to give up.2 'It gives me a mental lift to have got this far because to be honest if they had told me the bleakest medical diagnosis, which came out in dribs and drabs in the end, I might have said: "This is not going to happen."' Radcliffe admits her desperate battle for fitness represents a gamble but it is one she considers worthwhile with an Olympic title up for grabs. 'It was my dream as a little girl,' she explained. 'You don't dream about World Championships, you dream about the Olympics. 'I have not taken stupid risks with my leg - but at every point I have tested it and pushed it a bit further because you're taking a gamble. 'You have to ask yourself 'Are you prepared for the worst thing that can happen?' And for me the worst thing is not to be able to finish the race, and I have already faced that in Athens. 'There have been points when I really did not think I would make it so I will be the happiest of all the runners on the startline. The key is being in there fighting. 'The only reason I would not able to finish it would be if my leg could not handle it, but I have been encouraged as my leg has been coping with good amounts of running.' Blooming great: Japanese gold medalist Ayumi Tanimoto Japan's Ayumi Tanimoto became only the second woman to win two judo golds by defeating arch-rival Lucie Decosse of France to defend her 63-kg category title. Tanimoto joins team mate Ryoko Tani, whose bid to win a third successive gold medal in the women's 52-kg competition on Saturday ended with a bronze medal. The 27-year-old conquered a strong field in the lightweight division, blitzing all five of her opponents by ippon, including Cuba's Driulis Gonzalez, who she lost to at the world championships in Rio de Janeiro last year. The embarrassing spectacle of swathes of empty seats has prompted Beijing organisers to draft in 'cheerleader squads' of volunteers to fill the gaps. Despite every event at the Games being a sell-out, many have had large numbers of seats left vacant to the consternation of the Chinese, who wanted television coverage to show the Games in the best possible light. Organisers, who are also being pressurised by angry sponsors into making the vast Olympic Green more accessible to the public, have admitted they are now resorting to rent-a-crowd tactics. Volunteers are given yellow or red T-shirts and 'thunder-sticks' and told to create a good atmosphere. Wang Wei, vice-president of the Beijing organising committee, said: 'The shirts were handed out to volunteers who were assigned to be cheerleader squads to cheer both sides and encourage atmosphere. Watch us - please: Yellow-shirted Chinese spectators are being shipped in add volume to crowds 'It's down to the local organisers. If they find there are not enough seats taken up they can organise cheerleaders from the volunteers.' A total of 40,000 spectators turned up at events yesterday but with many separate events going on the Olympic Green appeared virtually empty. The wide walkways were deserted, food and drink stalls unused, and the sponsors' buildings have hardly had any passing visitors. A concerted campaign of complaints to the organisers has taken place, and it was announced today that measures would be taken to 'encourage' more visitors. Wang added: 'We had a plan of how many people should be in the Olympic Green to prevent over-crowding but they have not been many people inside so we are going to encourage more people to come to the Olympic Green.' Organisers did not elaborate on how this would be done - until now unless spectators have official accreditation or a ticket for a specific event they are denied access. Jamaican sprint star Asafa Powell has claimed he has given so much blood to the drugs testers he will not be at his best for the 100 metres final. Powell, who twice broke the 100m world record, says he has been tested four times since arriving in Beijing two weeks ago and expects to be tested again on As a result, he is worried about the effect on himself and his team-mates. 'Two days ago, I got pretty upset because since I've been here they've tested me four times,' he said. 'They take blood. I'm saying that they're taking so much blood, we're going to be very weak before the final of the 100m. And for my next number: Asafa Powell is sweating blood to win gold Powell added: "They're saying they're doing about 4000 tests. 'It's just very difficult to catch everyone but I hope they can do it and make this Olympics clean.'

SOLVED: Washer not washing leaving stains on clothing - Fixya Washer not washing... Question about LG WM2455 Front Load Washer We have a 2 year old washer which is leaving our clothes dingy looking even leaving some stains. Our clothes smell moldy and we even have some moldy spots on our clothes. We have done everything they recomend. ie- using a cleaner (we use smellywasher), powder HE detergent, leave door open, clean filter and what not... can thsi be fixed?I was also wondering would we be able to to stack this washer on top of a whirlpool duet dryer- or is that a big no no? thanks! Posted by twinmomma589 on Jul 31, 2010 Re: washer not washing leaving stains on clothing IT LEAVES DETERGENT STAINS ON OUR CLOTHES AND THE WHITES LOOK DINGY You can take 100ml of vinegar which is used for cooking and keep temp 65 degree and start normal program without cloths after doing this you will find the differance in washing quality Oct 03, 2009 | Whirlpool Duet GHW9150P Front Load Washer Front loading washer leaves stains This often is called "lint" but is really a "whiting" left by un-dissolved soap and can be seen at it's worst on dark colored clothes. This is made worse in a colder climate where the cold water entering the washer is much colder than normal. Things that can effect the quality of the finished washed products. Too much soap: ( we have a test for this further down the page ) If you follow the manufactures instructions on the box, then chances are you ARE using too much soap. They like to sell you their product, I find cutting usage in 1/2 of what the box says will still wash good and also cut your chances of getting "whiting" on your clothes.

Minimalist Wardrobe Challenge: Day Three (retroactively!) – The Live Simply Blog Minimalist Wardrobe Challenge: Day Three (retroactively!) So I posted my day three wardrobe last night, but WordPress appears to have eaten it. So sorry, everyone! This was Saturday’s poker night outfit. 🙂 Black sweater (jacket-thing) Here’s a better picture of my awesome Goodwill tie: And now for yesterday’s outfit: Blue and copper toenail polish Hey, it was a Sunday. 🙂 I was able to wash the gray shirt in the shower using my killer hand-washing skills. It dries really quickly, so I’m able to wash it before bed and wear it again in the morning. The jeans, of course, take a couple of days to hang dry, so I’m trying to keep them clean and throw them in my once-a-week load at the laundromat. Is that gross? ← Minimalist Wardrobe Challenge: Day Four Need this today. →

Mobile Exabytes…that’s a LOT of zeros | Life, Connected by Ozzie Diaz ← Kindle v2.0 U.S. Congressman Twitters in Iraq → Mobile Exabytes…that’s a LOT of zeros According to an article on GigaOm, by 2012 mobile will generate up to an exabyte of traffic per month! Just to illustrate, this is an exabyte: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. The prediction is part of Cisco’s Visual Networking Index which offers up many dimensions of how the Internet will grow and what will drive that growth. This is all fine and dandy, but Om also makes the same observation that I’ve written about several times as the biggest barrier to the emerging Exabyte Age…the carrier business model and economics. The carriers have yet to make a quantum leap in how they charge for mobile data and are still generally hovering at hard limits for monthly usage on mobile data plans, Cricket Wireless Unlimited 3G Broadband notwithstanding. The tier-1 carriers in North America (ATT, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, Sprint) can’t seem to figure out the attractiveness of family plans for mobile broadband. They don’t seem to be doing the price elasticity analyses on how they will get more subscribers with more of an appetite to consume new services and value-add applications (see ANY iPhone Appstore article) thereby creating an additive effect for ARPU which would probably yield more positive results than they’re seeing today. In fact, it’s ALL about the services and apps to drive adoption from the Average Joe mobile subscriber who, even in a down and miserable economy, still seems to prioritize his mobile services above other everyday conveniences, like his morning latte at Starbucks (sorry, Starbucks). When will the operators wake up and smell the coffee (to extend the frivolous pun already constructed)? Maybe it’s just a matter of time. Such as when 4G gets deployed offering better price/performance/bit economics for the operators. But are they really that concerned with the load on their 3G networks? Is this reality or a smokescreen? By Ozzie • Posted in 3G, ATT, broadband, exabyte, mobile, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon

+1 - Spartan has a .10% expense ratio. Even if the 401(k) had a bit extra on top, this is the way to go. Stay tuned for 4/1/12. Ironically, the joke will be on all of us when the rules requiring 401(k) administrators to disclose their fees. I dare say that the "giant sucking sound" you hear this decade with be employees abandoning their 401(k) deposits, realizing they has been robbed for decades. (I forget the historical backdrop, I just recall that that sound was jobs leaving the US under NAFTA in the 90s, and maybe the Mets in the 70's) – JoeTaxpayer♦ Feb 1 '12 at 22:29 Alternatively, if you are likely to employers semi-regularly (more common in some industries than others - like computer programming), and want to stash away as much tax-advantaged money as you can, you can contribute and then roll over your 401(k) to an IRA provider. You'll lose a little under 1% a year that you don't roll over; you'll have to decide if that's worth the additional tax sheltering. (If you can fit that money in another tax shelter, such as Roth IRA, that's probably a better plan. I reached a point at my last job where I couldn't, however.) – fennec Feb 1 '12 at 19:36 @fennec - I should edit this into my response. Great add-on. "If" is really the issue. Making the deposits to a bad plan is a bet you're moving on within a few years. – JoeTaxpayer♦ Feb 1 '12 at 22:21

Pastry School Diaries: 02/2013 Red Velvet Cake with Cinnamon Buttercream Not gonna lie, I'm not a huge fan of Red Velvet Cake. In fact, I think this is the first one I've ever made. Not because they are complicated but I just never understood the concept. It's a white cake dyed red. Okay there is a little cocoa added, but that's only to increase the intensity of the red color...so basically we're talking about a mild mild mild chocolate cake with a red spray-tan. Yeah I know I'm not giving you much incentive here...but let's face it, it's pretty at least. And it's red and almost Valentine's Day, and people LOVE Red Velvet this time of year. So I'm sharing this recipe for all the romantics out there. However, with that said, this is an excellent version of Red Velvet cake. It's moist and spongy, yet still has some depth, texture wise. But the crown jewel of this cake is the Cinnamon Buttercream. I've never tried this combo before and I'm now wondering where has this concept been my whole adult baking life? Can you image this buttercream on a carrot cake? Wowza indeed. The buttercream is extremely light and delicate, having almost a whipped quality. I promise this is not the type of frosting that gets stuck to the roof of your mouth. It is simply perfect, not overly sweet, and fool-proof, don't you love that? Lastly, a word to the wise here, according to Baked, from whom I got the recipe from. As much as you love Red Velvet Cake, try your best not to add more than the 2 tablespoons of red gel food coloring. A red-tinged tongue is not something your Valentine is asking for this year...well, unless that is your thing of course. Happy Velvet-y Valentine's Day. makes one 3-tier 8-inch cake 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, cut into small pieces 2 1/2 cups cake flour *see note below For the cinnamon butter cream: 1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) unsalted butter, soft but cool, cut into small pieces Red Hots (cinnamon imperials) candies for decoration, or any red-ish Valentine's candy. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter three 8-inch round cake pans, line the bottoms with parchment paper, and butter the parchment. I use a sandwich baggie as a glove to make this step easier. Here's a tip to quickly cut parchment circles. Lay out a long piece of parchment that is long enough to fit your three pans, and trace each with a marker. Roughly cut out each circle. Align the 3 circles on top of each other (the dark marker helps to make the lines easier to see). Fold into quarters, and simply cut across the line. This helps so you're not sitting in your kitchen cutting around and around and around. Dust the greased pans with flour, and knock out the excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, food coloring, and boiling water. Set aside to cool. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and shortening until smooth. Scrape down the bowl and add the sugar. Beat until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift the flour and salt together into another medium bowl. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture, alternating with the cocoa mixture, to the egg mixture in three separate additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Beat until incorporated. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and baking soda and stir until the baking soda dissolves; the mixture will fizz. Add to the batter and stir until just combined. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and smooth the tops. You can see here I used Wilton's Bake Even Strips. I've owned for about 4 years now and finally got around to using them. You know I am all for useless kitchen gadgets but these work AMAZING! First dampen the strips then pin them around the bottom edge of your pan. The moisture helps ensure that the edge of the pan stays cooler which means you don't end up with rounded tops or dry edges. No need to trim the tops off the cake once it's baked which means less wastage and pretty-lil-level tiers! Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, about 30 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time. Transfer the cakes to a wire rack and let cool for 20 minutes. Invert the cakes onto the rack, remove the pans, and let cool completely. Remove the parchment. To prepare the cinnamon buttercream, whisk the sugar and flour together in a medium heavy bottomed saucepan. Add the milk and cream and cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil and has thickened, about 20 minutes. Transfer the mixture to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on high until cool. Reduce the speed to low and add the butter; beat until thoroughly incorporated. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and cinnamon and continue mixing until combined. make sure your official taste tester is never too far away If the frosting is too soft, transfer the bowl to the refrigerator to chill slightly, then beat again until it is the proper consistency. If the frosting is too firm, place the bowl over a pot of simmering water and beat with a wooden spoon until it is the proper consistency. To assemble the cake, place one cooled cake layer on a serving platter or revolving cake stand for easy decorating. ***Note if your cake platter doesn't have a top, I suggest you buy a disposable cake board. This way you can easily transfer the cake from the cake stand to a cake saver. Trim the top to create a flat surface and evenly spread about 1 1/4 cups of frosting on top. Top with the next layer, trim and frost the top, then add the third layer. Crumb coat the cakes and put the cake in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up the frosting. A crumb coat is a very thin layer of frosting that is used to seal-in the crumb so the final coat of frosting will be smooth and crumb-free. Frost the sides and top with the remaining frosting. Garnish the cake with the red hots or whatever candy you can find that's red and sweet for your Valentine. Refrigerate again for 15 minutes. Slice up the love. Enjoy! Recipe courtesy of Baked: New Frontiers in Baking Posted by Gina Pistone at 05:38 3 comments Cinnamon Toast Crunch & White Chocolate Marshmallow Bars with Butterscotch Frosting Ok, yes these are some-what glorified rice krispy treats, using cinnamon toast crunch instead of rice krispies. I was hesitant, and I mean BEYOND hesitant to even post these bars. I mean, come on...making rice krispy treats is not exactly rocket science. And the intent of this blog is to push myself to learn how to bake like a pro, BUT...after tasting these there was no way I could keep the recipe to myself. So think of this recipe as my day off. The inspiration to whip up these sugary-dense yet chewy squares of awesomeness was a bag of marshmallows that's been sitting in my pantry since Christmas. Having a bag of marshmallows in the house is like money burning a hole in your pocket. You must use them, the longer they sit there the more antsy I become. I am the same way whenever there is large quantities of candy in the house. Remember the Fluffernutter & Kit Kat Almost Fudge Bars?...same thing. So what the heck else can you do with large marshmallows besides s'mores or rice krispy treats? I don't have a marshmallow gun and we're not camping folk so marshmallow bars it is. I love using bullet-proof, corn-syrup-ie, preservative-gone-wild types of cereal for making marshmallow treats. Rice Krispies are great, but you know been there, done that, WAY too many times. I knew I wanted to use butterscotch chips for the frosting, so cinnamon toast crunch seemed like a perfect pairing. You can swap out any cereal for these bars, and even switch up the butterscotch chips for chocolate or white chocolate. These are pretty darn versatile. And lastly, a head's up. Find yourself a sturdy spoon to combine the marshmallows and cereal. DO NOT, repeat DO NOT use a wooden spoon straight from the dishwasher. The wood needs time to dry and the spoon is...well, vulnerable. Can I just say I break wooden spoons on a monthly basis? Thanks Mom for always keeping me stocked. 1 bag (10 ounces) Jet-Puffed Marshmallows 4 heaping cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal Spray a 9 x 9 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. To prepare the bars, first spray a large stock pot and heavy-duty spoon with non-stick cooking spray. Melt butter in pot over medium heat. Add cereal and gently stir to coat with the marshmallows. Add chocolate chips and stir to combine. Some will melt, that's okay. Transfer mixture to the 9 x 9 prepared pan. Using a piece of waxed paper, gently push cereal mixer into pan. Be sure to compact well, otherwise when you cut into bars you will have gaps/holes. Meanwhile, to prepare the frosting, combine the sugar, butter, and milk in a small saucepan. Continue stirring until completely melted. Bring mixture to boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips. Continue stirring until smooth and all the chips have melted. Pour mixture over bars and use an off-set spatula to spread evenly. Transfer bars to the refrigerator for about an hour for the frosting to set.

As social media changes the world we live in, disaster responders are finding ways to use it to improve emergency response. The Red Cross is using social media’s ability to disseminate updated information in real-time in their response to Hurricane Sandy. Twitter recently announced that it had tracked 20 million tweets with the terms “Sandy” or “hurricane” between October 27 and November 1. According to Twitter, tweets mentioning the Red Cross also increased 30 times the normal amount! On Monday evening around 9 pm, Twitter mobile usage in New York also peaked, serving at times as a vital source of information for affected residents. Facebook has seen an increase in usage as well, with discussion of Hurricane Sandy ranking an 8.34 on the “Talk Meter” which measures overall discussion of an event. By way of comparison, this year’s Superbowl ranked just slightly above at 8.62 and the Presidential Debate rang in at 8.18 on the scale, making Hurricane Sandy the second most talked about event on Facebook this year by October 30th. According to Facebook, the term “we are okay” was the most popular term used by Facebook users in the U.S. as people turned to social media to let their loved ones know they are safe. The American Red Cross is using its social channels to share the locations of mobile food trucks and relief supplies and digital volunteers are working hard to respond to questions about finding a shelter or food truck. Since many in New York and New Jersey are still without power in their homes, social media has provided a platform to reach people who are in need of important information.

I maybe tweeted out 40 before a message from twitter came up saying, ” You have reached your maximum tweets for now, try again in a couple of hours.” I tried later and again the same stupid message appeared. I pray this did not effect the donations. Shame on twitter for putting a limit on tweets! Would also like to say a huge Thank you, to some folks who are getting very little credit. The Linemen & Women, who are going to the areas effected by Sandy, from all over the USA and Canada. It’s a hard life, tough on families of these folks, and usually a very thankless job. Kudos, also to all the ordinary people, in the areas effected, who are doing most Extraordinary things, to assist neighbours and strangers with what ever they have to give…. It’s time like these we are reminded, we are all from running the same race. The Human Race. Blessing to all those who’s lives were lost. The ones left to rebuild and all those who are going above and beyond to help show their support. Blessing to all the Red Cross Volunteers and organization, for always being there, where disasters strike.

The Red Sox and Phillies have talked about a Cole Hamels deal | Around The Base In the wake of the Hanley Ramirez and Pablo Sandoval news, the most common comment I’ve heard is “well, the Red Sox still need pitching.” About that: The Red Sox could certainly use him and the Phillies could certainly use, well, anyone, so there is at least a theoretical matchup here. The biggest issue is whether Ruben Amaro, who is reported to be a bit unrealistic about the potential return he can get for his players, will ask for something reasonable in return.

EmmaKisstina Illustrations by Kristina Hultkrantz: Branding and Niche Branding and Niche Today's Question: How did you go about branding and finding your niche? Branding may be the funnest and most important (besides your fantabulous product) part of starting your own business. It's really fun researching logo designs, colors and fonts of other artists, designers and brands and then making something that is your own, which represents you, your great taste and image. (Pinterest makes this really easy and there are tons of free fonts sites like Dafont.com to search through.) Easier said than done I suppose; to just come up with a design. But once you see 'the font' or 'the color' or 'that border' you just know it's right. I'm so glad I've been able to do all this on my own; and didn't have to inlist the services of a graphic designer. This way I could test lots of things out and develop my look over time, until I found something I really like... and which also really represents my business in the way that I'd like it to be perceived. With out wasting spending lots of money. • Stick to a limited color palette • Limit yourself to one or two fonts • Don't get 1000 business cards or signs printed right away. Allow your logo design to sink in, so you know that it is just right. • Take a look at this super inspiring wonderfully type filled Pinterest board by Very Asia. I've redesigned my website and blog a million times (read 4 - 5 times) and my logo once. I'm finally after 5 years (oops that's a bit too long, but sometimes things take time) got my design and logo finalized. But who knows, I might redesign next year. I just think redesigning too often can be a bit confusing to your followers and buyers. Even this week you may have noticed some changes on the blog as I've been putting much more effort and time here... and needed a space to match. (I'm quite pleased and think this design will stick around for quite a while.) Your niche kind of finds you. My work is pretty obvious and my niche is most definitely majority women with a love for fashion (but appeals to many ages.) Once this became apparent (after lots of the same sorts of blogs contacted me) I could confidently submit my work to fashion magazines and fashion blogs directed towards a few different age groups. There is no point for me to waste my time submitting my work to blogs or magazines with audiences that wouldn't appreciate my work. Oh my goshie, I'm thrilled&speechless!! Another great advice + my pinboard mentioned!! It's a honour! Thank you Kristina!!!:)))I'm so happy for your lil trip to Paris, have fun! It's definitely one of my fave places/cities! You're so welcome Asia! keep up the great work! I seriously can't wait for Paris. xo

I never knew there was such a history of types of flowers for different emotions and desires. Very interesting and well performed. More Less Elizabeth, because like many a mother, she wasn't perfect. More Less I don't think I've ever disliked the main character in a book before, but I ended up disliking Victoria as an adult. I got her anger and aloofness as a child, but couldn't stand it as she grew up. At the point when she got pregnant and ended her relationship with Grant, my interest in the book ended. I listened to the rest just to finish the book. I may have had a different experience had I read it, but I did not find the story engaging. Sorry! Has The Language of Flowers turned you off from other books in this genre? It wasn't Tara Sand's performance - it was just that I didn't like the main character. You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? It was delightful learning about the meaning of flowers. More Less "Sappy, chick story" What disappointed you about The Language of Flowers? I found the main character unrealistic and unlikable. Her actions just did not make sense other than that she was selfish and made poor decisions. I could tell what was going to happen next. The flower theme became tiresome and empty. Very overrated sappy chick book. What do you think your next listen will be? That is all by John Hodgeman She is a great reader, expressive, clear. I would listen to something she read again. You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? The flower thing had some promise and the author does write nice prose, I just could not stand the overly romantic, overly emotional story line. I could not figure out why the supporting characters seemed to like the main character who gave them little to latch on to. More Less Sue Dorick Taylor Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes! I work with kids, so it was interesting to hear Victoria's responses to situations. It ran the gamut of emotions, laughter, sadness, empathy, tears. This is the first time I had a book skip chapters. Each time at the beginning of listening, the book skipped 1-2 chapters. Also, the chapter numbers(auditorially) did not match those listed, which made it hard to get back. Would you consider the audio edition of The Language of Flowers to be better than the print version? I actually had both the audio and print version of the book and switched on and off depending on the situation. The audio was great...when I switched to print I would hear the audio voices in my head! My only complaint with the audio is that it was slow. I could read the book much faster. What other book might you compare The Language of Flowers to and why? I'm not sure. It's quite a unique story. I think if you liked The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley, you'd like this book. They're the same type of read. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? No, but learning about the meaning of each flower variety was really interesting. I haven't looked at flowers the same since. More Less The author made of a rather common topic a very enjoyable reading experience. The reunion of Elizabeth and Victoria after many years of absence from each other's life. Not a particular one. Cry at times, but for the most part, wonder over the possibilities of events such as those described may occur. The book is not a master-piece, but in keeping with today's writing trends, I think this is better than many. I wished the narrator had more dynamic and more interest in better reding, though I could tolerate her, at times< monotone style.

Nest | hillwards Nest This entry was posted on September 5, 2012, in Cats, Craft and tagged cats, craft, crochet. Bookmark the permalink. 5 Comments With the arrival of a new cat (Faith), and inspired by a pattern I came upon online, I turned my hand to my first proper attempt at crochet, to make a ‘nest’ for her. I bought some thick carpet yarn, in Berber wool, armed myself with a 7.5mm crochet hook, and within a few nights had constructed a surprisingly sturdy open cat bed. I love to use natural fibres and materials around the house, and particularly enjoy the contrast between the rich textures of chunky knits against the smooth surface of the leather sofa or slate floors. It’s a bonus that bulky wools knit or crochet up a lot faster too! Whenever I put my work-in-progress down on the sofa, I invariably found a cat sitting on it, which boded well, although it was Xander as often as Faith. I’m really pleased with how it turned out – and so, it would appear, is Xander. We keep finding him sleeping in it. Since it was completed, Faith hasn’t had a look-in. I think I’m going to have to start another one… 5 thoughts on “Nest” Hannah Ackroyd says: September 5, 2012 at 10:07 am Aww how adorable! I am half way through making a cat nest too but I have run out of yarn!

Dave's Daily T-Shirts: T-shirt #63: University of Prince Edward Island I got this one last year during my yearly visit to The Island. When I think of PEI, many things come to mind. From my youth, the 14 hour trips (with the ferry ride), leaving at 4AM for those trips, meeting my grandparents who were already up there, endless wiffle ball games, Mr. Dressup, the smell of the dewy grass in the morning as I ran to my grandmother’s cottage for breakfast, years the McGraths and O’Neills were there together, mini golf, visiting the farm, The Hughes Family, Rainbow Valley, the beach, Tim Hortons, flashlight tag, the talking crow, the big stone in front of the cottage, my father taking pictures and/or movies, ketchup potato chips, the swings in the basement, Cavendish, deep sea fishing, the screen house, and endless card games with my siblings and grandmother (who would call us “little shits” if we took a card she needed). For the years after college until now, PEI makes me think of relaxing mornings, going to see The Fiddlers’ Sons, Cynthia MacLeod, and Richard Wood, Cows, visiting the UPEI bookstore, fun with my nephews and niece, watching Trailer Park Boys, how many more stars you see in the sky at night, Dalvay Beach, playing roller hockey, Adam McQuaid, Piazza Joe’s, actually reading books, and laughing at all hours. Most of all, PEI means family to me. It means being in one of my favorite places with my favorite people. Also pictured with me is my newest book of poetry which I just got in the mail today, woo hoo! Below is a poem in it that makes references to PEI…enjoy! I miss you famously, Like how many stars on a Late August night In Prince Edward Island, A single dot in our Milky Way of sharing. A need, not want to look up at the same sky, Sleep until whenever, To get up and create new constellations of art. To the acres of fields The Moon begs the Sun to harvest, This eclipse has me wandering With only my pen, Searching for even a tease of light To record this phenomenon. My faith goes to you, My ideal dream, blanket of beauty. I will find you somehow, Even collapsed, I will carry you in the moonlight To a sandy PEI beach. And, music, music, music, music, Music...a planet of music for you. Posted by Dave McGrath at 5:05 PM Katie March 5, 2010 at 8:26 PM You forgot to add to the list, "Playing practical jokes on my sister (i.e., the Towel in the Sand Incident)!!!

Carlos Núñez Department of Psychology University of Oviedo, Spain Department of Computer Science University of Oviedo, Spain cerezorebeca@uniovi.es suareznatalia.uo@uniovi.es jcarlosn@uniovi.es melsanchezsantillan@gmail.com -Provide feedback to both teachers and students of eLearning courses, and detection of atypical or non-adaptive learning behaviors. eGraph is a virtual tool developed with the aim of make easier to track the students´ learning process in Learning Management Systems like Moodle. It is based in the log files that the learning platform records when the students are interacting with and allows teachers, students, and researchers to track the learning route that learners have followed during a particular time span. The tool has been developed in five phases as suggested in other works [3]. The Content Management System is used by students and the logs are stored in the database. Particularly, to develop and test this tool it has been used the data available from 576 third-year graduate students from the University of Oviedo during a 13 weeks eLearning course. H.2.8 [Database Applications]: Data Mining; E.1 [Data Structures]: Graphs and networks; K.3.1 [Computer Uses in Education]: Computer-managed instruction (CMI) 3.2 Preprocessing data and setting variables of interest For this particular course we have chosen two main groups of variables, but they can be easily changed according to the teacher/researcher´s goals: -Variables represented as different color nodes regarding course contents. Seven different variables were selected: theoretical content view, summary view, multimedia content view, task view, task submission, forum view, and forum participation. Different colors were assigned to each variable to facilitate their visualization. The nodes are numbered by chronological order. -Variables represented as edges regarding time between different actions and activation of previous knowledge. Different thickness is assigned to each variable to facilitate their visualization. In addition, red colors have been applied to the edges in order to identify when the student is working on previous contents. Graph, learning process educational data mining. visualization, adaptive feedback, While students learn, explore, fail or procrastinate in a Learning Management System (LMS) leave traces [1]. Nowadays, one of the most commonly used LMS in higher educational contexts is Moodle (modular object oriented developmental learning environment). Moodle automatically records a vast amount of information in the so-called logs, which is valuable for analyzing student´s behavior. However, due to the vast quantity of data is very difficult to manage them manually. The eGraph tool is designed to assess participation and learning process of the students in Moodle in a fast and simple way, which otherwise would not be possible by the characteristics of the data (amounts of raw data with no sense if are not processed) and the eTeachingeLearnig Process itself (most of the times, the teacher has no technical knowledge apart from the basic user interaction with the system). 3.3 Applying Data Mining Educational Data Mining technics are applied to build the model that summarizes the students learning process. To do so, there are both commercial and free data mining tools that can be used. Currently, Graph Mining technics are being tested with this purpose. -Provide a specific tool allowing educators to thoroughly track and assess learner´s activities while evaluating the effectiveness of the course contents for the learning process. -Facilitate course adaptation and learning recommendations based on students´ learning behaviors and Adaptive Educational Hypermedia [2].

Don't Let Petty Crime Spoil Your Vacation February 07, 1999|By Cynthia Boal Janssens. Special to the Tribune. It was about 9:15 in the evening and we three women were strolling through the gothic section of Barcelona, Spain, an area of winding streets filled with cafes and shops and plenty of people, when we stopped in a doorway to look at a menu. Suddenly, there was an explosive sound behind us. My friend Sylvia was carrying a bottle of liqueur to take back to the States and I was sure she had dropped it. I fully expected to turn and see her drenched in Schnapps Limon-Vert. Instead, I was to hear her gasp, "He took my purse!" A few months later, I was touring the old town of Quito, Ecuador, with a group of fellow writers when one fellow was jostled. After he recovered, he discovered that the side pocket of his pants had been slit. In the cheery city of Dublin, three of my friends were taking a Sunday afternoon stroll, visiting the churches of that fair city. One of the three was a husky fellow well over 6 feet tall. However, one of the group was lagging behind, taking pictures. A fellow ran up behind her, grabbed her shoulder bag and kept on running. Only Dixie didn't let go. She held on tight and was dragged for several yards before she got her wits about her and opened her hand. He ran on and was immediately picked up at the curb by a car that had been following. I tell you these stories not to scare you from going out on the streets when you travel, but to let you know that petty crime is alive and flourishing in most tourist areas and that you have to be ever-vigilant to prevent it. And, even if you are careful, you still may be victimized, so it is important to reduce your losses. So what to do? Let's retrace these incidents. Technically, these people encountered a purse-snatcher, a pickpocket and a mugger. But who really cares about such distinctions? In Barcelona, we now realize that Sylvia was perhaps easy target. First, she is 72; purse-snatchers often prey on older folks and women, who they know won't or can't chase them. She was wearing a brightly colored jacket from a running suit -- the cosmopolitan folks who live in Barcelona do not wear running suits in their city center on a Saturday night. Dark or neutral clothing is best. Last, she was wearing a small purse on a string around her neck, in clear sight. It should have been tucked inside. So remember: Look at what the local people are wearing and try to blend in. Try not to gawk. Carry only a small purse or waist pack and keep it out of sight. There is a myth that waist packs are the best way to protect your valuables; definitely not so. Slick thieves can ride up alongside you on a bicycle and slit the waistband and be off with your goods in a blink. I suggest using waist packs to carry small cameras, tissues, sunglasses and petty cash. Keep credit cards and anything else you can't afford to lose elsewhere. In the second incident, my friend Wayne really wasn't doing anything wrong. He was wearing cargo pants and the local thugs thought he might be carrying a wallet or a wad of cash in there. They came up empty-handed in this case, but his pants were ruined. Men should be very careful about carrying wallets when traveling. My advice is: don't. Put your wallet in the hotel's safety deposit box and carry with you only the amount of cash you think you will need that day and one credit card. Mind you, only one credit card. If you really need the security of two, give the other to your traveling companion to carry. A good place for men to carry valuables is in the inside chest pocket of a travel vest, in a pocket with a zipper. Travel vests really are becoming the travel accessory, for men and women. In the Dublin incident, I believe Dixie was targeted because she was a few steps behind her companions (they obviously were not deterred by Tyler, who is a real big guy) and because her purse was in clear view. If you absolutely must carry a larger purse, be sure to carry it with the strap across your shoulders (not over just one shoulder) and keep it in front of you with your hand on it. Even so, it someone wants to cut the strap and yank it away, be wary of holding on too long or you could be injured. Dixie was very shaken up and sore for days. Also, she had her passport and several credit cards in her purse and had to spend most of a day dealing with the loss of those crucial items. Keep your passport in the hotel safety deposit box or with your cruise ship purser. Never carry all of your cash with you; divide it up and always leave some back in the room, perhaps tucked into the toe of a boot. A final suggestion: Clean out your purse or wallet before leaving on your trip and bring with you only the essential credit cards. Also carry with you the numbers you need to cancel these cards immediately if they are stolen. (The officer at the Barcelona police station knew the Visa and MasterCard cancellation numbers by heart. I wonder why?) Leave all the other cards at home. Most of us tend to carry a fistful of cards; what a pain it is to have to cancel all of them. Ditto for jewelry. We love to wear our best jewelry when we travel, but that is risky. Bring what you can wear -- and keep that simple -- and leave the rest behind. (Be sure to leave it in a safe place at home, lest you be victimized by thieves who prey on those who are traveling.) Rely on nice costume jewelry. This I know; I lost some very valuable jewelry, including an engagement ring, when my bag was rifled in Miami Airport. I know, I know. The jewelry should not have been packed; of course, I should have been carrying it. But mistakenly it was packed, the only time I can ever remember that occurring, and I lost it all.

andrew weissmann laid out a key theory that the, quote, heart of mueller's probe is still looking at a potentially illegal deal between russia and trump aides. here is the line that is getting attention. weissmann saying manafort's alleged lies go, quote, very much to the heart of what the special counsel's office is investigating. in "the new york times" reports, those comments indicate mueller's still open probe is pursuing the central question of whether there was some kind of deal between russia and the trump campaign. now this is important because it reveals a mueller prosecutor

michael cohen is in the tenth hour of his workday which is a closed door meeting with the senators on the intelligence committee. and that's of course the first of three consecutive days of testimony.

the time mueller was appointed, people who were all there for the start of the investigation, they were all later fired or forced out of the agency. >> i knew there was work we needed to do to make sure the investigation was on rock solid ground. >> the associated press says that you asked for a backup plan to protect russia evidence. what -- what was that backup plan? >> i can't tell you the

involvement of the hostile foreign entities interfering with the elections is more severe than the false representations of voter fraud in elections? do you believe that a foreign interference with the elections is more severe? >> congresswoman, i think foreign interference in our election system in the united states is a very serious and ongoing concern. i also believe that voter fraud is a serious concern. >> after you left office, you pursued a series of other political offices, one of which was the united states senate. yes or no if in pursuit of that office someone contacted you to

push asking the federal judge to sentence manafort to prison immediately. those developments obviously ominous for several trump figures in the russia probe and they come as trump used this bizarre and rambling press conference, even by 2019 standards, to claim a national emergency at the border while also undermining himself. that's a story i mentioned with chuck and we'll cover it later on tonight. we begin with today's ruler against trump's longtierm adviser roger stone. it goes against his ability to make this case in public. this federal judge finding mueller won the arguments for a partial gag order. that means it bans stone and his lawyers from public remarks that would prejudice jurors as well as even talking at all when they come and go from the court. anyone watching stone's recent conduct knows that will require him to change gears or go to j you as always. >> this is here on "the beat" another mueller friday. as mueller's prosecutors win a new ruling to gag roger stone.

obviously ominous for several trump figures in the russia probe and they come as trump used this bizarre and rambling press conference, even by 2019... the kids came up explicitly. at this point mueller has not even interviewed junior yet. and there were certainly things about junior. and going back to the southern district and their relationship with michael has completely changed. it was very contentious going in. they signed off that two-month extension. they recommended it to the judge. so they're working very closely together and i've said on many shows. this ends with a rico charge in the southern district. this is where this ends where they go after the entire organization. you talked about a mob boss. that's what it was built for. someone who sits atop a criminal enterprise and is responsible for all of it. >> and that's a district you worked in. i want to play as you think about that possibility, cohen alleges trump did something that is partly why he's going to jail. the idea of who gets away with what. you were pointing out as we were coming out on the set regarding this, take a look at that moment today. >> to your knowledge, did the president ever provide inflated assets to a bank in order to help him obtain a loan? the kids came up explicitly. at this point mueller has not even interviewed junior yet. and there were certainly things about junior. and going back to the southern district and their relationship with michael has completely changed. it was very contentious going in. they signed off that two-month extension. they recommended it to the judge. so they're working very closely together and i've said on many shows. this ends with a rico charge in the southern district. this is where this ends where... government. this is sort of more serious version of the charge that a number of mueller targets have faced, which is failing to register as a foreign agent. what bijan kian was charged with in mid-december is sort of the more serious version of that crime. according to his lawyers, it is something that has only been charged in the united states a handful of times since the law was created. but bijan kian plead not guilty. he is not pleading guilty and agreeing to cooperate like most of the other people who were charged in the mueller investigation thus far. kian has plead not guilty. he wants to go to trial. today there was a hearing in his case to among other things set a trial date. kian's lawyers plead with the judge hearing that case in the eastern district of virginia that they needed quite a lot more time to prepare their defense before they would feel comfortable proceeding with a trial, and mostly their basis for arguing that today was that there is a ton of evidence to go through in the government's case, what they described of terabytes of data on multiple hard drives government. this is sort of more serious version of the charge that a number of mueller targets have faced, which is failing to

right? >> yeah, i do. >> they expect too much. one group thinks that the president is going to be led out of the white house in handcuffs and is going to end up in an orange jumpsuit and the other says, oh, it's going to be pall roses and flowers and everything is going to smell like glade air fresher and it's going to be great. it's going to be none of that. it's going to be somewhere in the middle and people should just brace themselves. if you love him, vote for him in 2020. if you don't like him, vote him out in 2020 and then he's gone and he'll have to deal with the rest. do you think i'm wrong on that? >> i don't. look, we could both be wrong. there could be some real earth-shattering things. i just don't know why mueller wouldn't have acted on them before now. maybe there will be another wave of action by him. we keep hearing those whispers, it's closer to the end than the beginning, so putting aside that surpri surprise, i think that you don't have a massive prosecution of the president coming up here. i don't even know if it's possible. but th from this will mueller report, right? >> yeah, i do. >> they expect too much. one group thinks that the president is going to be led out of the white house in handcuffs and is going to end up in an orange jumpsuit and the other says, oh, it's going to be pall roses and flowers and everything is going to smell like glade air fresher and it's going to be great. it's going to be none of that. it's going to be somewhere in the middle and people should just brace themselves. if you love... some of his testimony on camera. and on top of all of that, robert mueller's report may land literally at any minute. and whatever you think of all of this, things are getting very serious, very quickly. as we said, playtime is over. i want to start with roger stone's day in court, why he was there, how he tried to explain himself, and what the judge made of it. cnn's sara murray was at the courthouse today. she joins us now. so it did seem like -- or did it seem like he had any reasonable explanation for his instagram post in which there was a crosshair on the judge? >> you know, it wasn't exactly an explanation. on the one hand, he apologized. he admitted it was a screw-up. he said it was a lapse in judgment due to the emotional stress of this whole ordeal. on the other hand, he didn't have a clear explanation of how it came to be in the first place. he said he has these volunteers who help him find these photos, and that someone supplied it to him, but he didn't know which volunteer it was, and he didn't know how he got the photo in the first place, and he wasn't able to explain exa some of his testimony on camera. and on top of all of that, robert mueller's report may land literally at any minute. and whatever you think of all of this, things are getting very serious, very quickly. as we said, playtime is over. i want to start with roger stone's day in court, why he was there, how he tried to explain

walking away from the breaking news about mueller, do you feel like that news is going to define the next two years? mr. jeffries: well, i think what's going to define the next few years is our for the people agenda. we are very clear in the few months leading up to the mid-term elections that were we given the opportunity to govern, we want to focus on three things -- lower health care costs, increase pay for everyday americans, do a real infrastructure plan, and cleaning up corruption in washington, d.c. and so that's our forward-looking, affirmative kitchen table, pocketbook issue, oriented agenda and that's where we want to keep the focus on at the same time, you know, we have a responsibility to carry out our oversight functions in a esponsible manner. mike: so you won the house leadership race and those are the most vicious races there are to be house democratic chair. you called it perhaps with a wink, you called it a friendly contest of ideas. mr. jeffries: well, that's correct. member--on-member races are always difficult because there are relatio liberated right now. mike: walking away from the breaking news about mueller, do you feel like that news is going

Facing Autism in New Brunswick: Autism`s 40% With Intellectual Disability? Auti$m $peak$ Doesn't See YOU, Doesn't Speak For YOU! I happen to be among the majority of autistics that aren't either practicably gifted or super-smart. I spent many a years to get to the level of functioning I am now. Even now, I happen to have problems, such as being accepted by my peers, ADD, OCD,etc. I fantasize a lot about the life that was taken away from me before birth. Autism Speaks isn't so much a charity as such, as a private research arm for the American corporate medical complex. After all, if they really wanted to cure autism, they wouldn't make any more money from treating symptoms, even with 'Obamacare' in place. Autism Speaks sure doesn't speak for me.

A root bridge is selected from a plurality of bridges in the network; the root bridge calculating at least one spanning tree from a topology database that has been populated by bridge neighbor information gleaned from link state advertising messages. The root bridge may also calculate an alternate topology for implementation in the event a failure condition that affects the primary spanning tree is detected. The root bridge then advertises the spanning tree and remotely configures the port states of the bridges in the spanning tree through tree advertising messages that the bridges are arranged to process and set their ports accordingly. 1. A method for setting up and updating a tree in a computer network having a plurality of network nodes controlled in a link state manner where in said plurality of network nodes are interconnected using a plurality of bridges wherein each node includes one or more ports for connecting a bridge with a neighboring node, wherein a topology database is available at each network node, said method comprising the steps of: calculating a topology of a tree using only a root bridge of the tree; configuring, by the root bridge, one or more of its ports participating in the tree; advertising, by the root bridge, the topology of the tree by sending a tree topology advertisement to the neighboring network nodes participating in the tree; configuring, by the neighboring network nodes, the one or more ports for each of the network nodes participating in the tree according to the tree topology advertisement; and forwarding the tree topology advertisement through the configured ports of the neighboring network nodes along the tree. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of calculating the topology of the tree is based on a topology database populated with neighbor information obtained from link state advertisement messages, the topology database being maintained by a link state protocol. 3.

Description This application is related to and claims benefit of the filing date of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/885,667 filed Jan. 19, 2007, which is entirely incorporated by reference herein. The present invention is directed, in general, to controlling data traffic in computer networks and, more specifically, to a method and system for tree management in Ethernets and similar networks using link state principles. Computers, broadly speaking, are electronic machines capable of storing and manipulating information, often called data, to useful ends. Frequently, a number of computers are connected together in such a way that they are able to send data to each other. A collection of computers so connected is often called a network, and the connector between two network nodes is referred to as a link. One type of computer network is called a LAN (local area network), and may be found, for example, in the offices of a small business or educational institution. A number of LANs or other networks may also be brought into communication with each other. As might be expected, a system of rules or set procedures must be put in place so that the computers and networks can communicate with each other effectively. Such a system of rules and procedures is often called a protocol, and several have been developed for communications involving computer networks. A widely accepted set of protocols for LAN communications has been developed under the auspices of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers). A standard generally referred to as IEEE 802, for example, covers general network architecture, IEEE 802.1 deals with bridging and management, and IEEE 802.3 is the Ethernet protocol. An Ethernet LAN is generally one that handles traffic, that is, the flow of data from one computer to one or more other, using a system of collision detection and avoidance. (A ‘collision’ occurs when two or more computers attempt to send data over the same link at the same time.) These standards are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary to improve networks operations and account for developments in technology. In a typical Ethernet network, data sent from one computer to another, or from one network to another, is not transmitted all at once or continuously, but is instead broken up into discrete ‘frames’. Using frames of data better allows the network computers to take turns sending data. The frames may vary in length, but each frame includes sufficient address information (in addition to the actual data) so it may be routed to its desired destination or destinations. Routing is necessary because every computer is not connected directly to every other. Instead, computers and networks are connected to intermediary devices that receive data, determine its destination address, and then route it accordingly. One such intermediary device is referred to as a bridge. A bridge is a type of software switch resident on a network component. A frame of data may be routed through many bridges on its way from source to destination. FIG. 15 is a simplified schematic diagram illustrating the bridges of an exemplary network 10, in which embodiments of the present invention may be advantageously implemented. The network 10 may have many components, but for clarity only the bridges themselves are shown. Individual components such as computers and sub-networks may be connected to one of the bridges. In the embodiment of FIG. 15, there are nine bridges, numbered 1 through 9, although the present invention is also suitable for implementation in larger or smaller networks. Each of these bridges 1 through 9 is connected by a link to one or more other bridges. In FIG. 15 the links are numbered according to the bridges it connects, for example link 24 connects bridge 2 directly with bridge 4. A path includes all of the links from one bridge to another, for example one path from bridge 1 to bridge 9 includes links 13, 38, and 89. As should be apparent, there may be more than one path between any two bridges. When a bridge receives a data frame from, for example, a network computer or another bridge, it examines the address information and forwards the frame accordingly. Data may have to pass through several bridges from its source to destination. Without some governing protocol, however, it is possible that frames of data might inadvertently be sent from bridge to bridge, eventually looping back to a previously-visited bridge from which they are re-sent back into the same loop. As should be apparent, this is not a desirable phenomenon and techniques have evolved for avoiding this looping problem. One technique to avoid looping would be to use a fixed-configuration network and always route frames intended for a particular destination by the same route. Most networks are subject to change, however, and occasionally encounter break downs or congestion in components and links. A static routing system is therefore not the best solution. In a more successful solution, a ‘spanning tree’ is calculated periodically according to a spanning tree protocol (STP). The spanning tree provides path definitions for the network as it exists at the time of the tree calculation. In the event of a failure or other event, the tree can be recalculated to adjust to the new conditions. Calculation of a spanning tree preferably involves not only designating a path from each source to each destination, but determining the best pathways for each case so that network communications are accomplished in an efficient manner. IEEE standards, for example, often use distance vector mechanisms to determine an active topology for the network, the active topology referring to the tree of data forwarding paths that will be used to route data traffic. This distance vector technique is well known and will not be discussed here in detail, except to note that the active topology is configured in a distributed manner, and so no bridge in the network is aware of the data distribution scheme in its entirety. It is therefore possible, or even likely, that the topology is not optimal. The distance vector approach is also less efficient at fault handling, that is at recovering from a failure occurring somewhere in the network. A better solution may be to use a link state spanning tree calculation by applying the core functionality of IP (Internet protocol) using routing protocols such as OSPF (open shortest path first) and IS-IS (intermediate system to intermediate system). IP protocols are typically developed and disseminated by the IETF (Internet engineering task force). In general, the link state approach facilitates application of traffic engineering and allows the active topology to be optimized. Directly implementing IP routing protocols, however, would mean each bridge would have to set up its own forwarding tables. This is not a detriment in and of itself, but it may produce long unavailable periods resulting in at least transient loops. Another complication is that Ethernet frames do not include a TTL (time to live) field (as does an IP packet) so transient loops may be problematic when changes in active topology are occurring. Of course, bridges that notice the topology is changing could simply stop forwarding data frames until a new topology is calculated, but this procedure slows down the recovery significantly. There is therefore a need in the art for a manner in which to implement a link state approach to spanning tree calculation that retains the advantages of link state protocols, but mitigates or eliminates the problems they have, especially those associated with an occasionally changing active topology. The present invention provides just such a solution. To address the above-discussed deficiencies of the prior art, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a method and arrangement for configuring the active topology of a computer network, for example an Ethernet LAN. It is a further object of the invention to apply an improved link state approach to network tree management, the improved link state approach having, among other things, an advantageous architecture and an improved recovery time as compared with conventional approaches. In one aspect, the invention is a method for configuring a network, such as an Ethernet LAN, for efficient forwarding of data traffic, including collecting neighbor information, generating and distributing link state advertisements, populating a topology database for the network, and calculating in a root bridge the port states for each bridge in a tree using from the topology database. The method may further include advertising the tree by selectively distributing tree advertisement messages, receiving tree advertisement messages in bridges of the network, and configuring the ports of each bridge according to the advertisement message. The method may also further include the feature of recognizing, in a network bridge that a link state advertisement has already been processed, and to discard rather than forward them. In this way, a protocol for links states STP is defined that allows the application of flexible sets of routing objectives. In another aspect, the present invention is a network comprising at least one root bridge, wherein the root bridge is remotely sets the port states of at least one other network bridge. In a preferred embodiment, the active network topology is calculated at the root bridge and imposed on all the other network bridges. A root bridge therefore is arranged to build a topology database and use the topology data base to calculate a spanning tree for the network. The root bridge is further arranged to generate and distribute tree advertisement messages that describe the tree for non-root bridges. Non-root bridges are arranged to receive the tree advertisement messages and process them. The non-root bridges are also arranged to configure their ports according to the description in the tree advertisement message, and to selectively forward the tree advertisement messages in the direction of leaf bridges. Non-root bridges may also be arranged to modify the tree description in the tree advertisement message prior to forwarding them to other bridges. In this manner, problems due to any potential inconsistency in link state databases may be mitigated or eliminated entirely, as the time needed to synchronize databases following a failure is eliminated. In some embodiments, the use of alternate or backup ports is implemented when a failure condition is detected. In yet another aspect, the present invention is a bridge for use in a network, the bridge arranged to serve as a root bridge by calculating a spanning tree based on collected network information, to configure itself according to the calculated tree, and to remotely configure the other bridges in the spanning tree.

FIG. 16 is a flow diagram illustrating a method of facilitating data traffic flow according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 1 through 16, discussed herein, and the various embodiments used to describe the principles of the present invention in this patent document are by way of illustration only and should not be construed in any way to limit the scope of the invention. Those skilled in the art will understand that the principles of the present invention may be implemented in any suitably arranged computer network. The present invention is directed to a new approach to facilitating the management of data traffic flow in a network, such as an Ethernet LAN (local area network), using a spanning tree active topology. FIG. 16 is a flow diagram illustrating a method 20 of facilitating data traffic flow according to an embodiment of the present invention. At START it is assumed that a network operable to communicate data via a plurality of bridges has been formed, such as the one shown in FIG. 15. The network is, for example, an Ethernet LAN network operable according to the IEEE 802 family of protocols, but other similarly arranged networks may be used as well. The process begins when the network is assembled and energized for operation, or at some later time as determined by a network operator. In this embodiment, it is also presumed that a root bridge for the network has been determined. This may be done in a number of ways, although no particular way is required by the present invention unless specifically recited in a given embodiment. Returning to the method 20 of FIG. 16, in step 105 neighbor discovery is undertaken, so that each of the network bridges may learn the other bridges to which they are connected. The information discovered in the neighbor discovery step 105 is then transmitted (step 110) to other bridges via LSAs (link state advertisements). Although the LSAs flood the network, in a preferred embodiment they will be discarded (step not shown) by bridges that, for example, realize they have already learned the information contained in a particular LSA. The root bridge then compiles a topology database (step 115), and uses the topology database to develop a spanning tree for the network and calculating the necessary port configurations (step 120) for each (non-root) bridge. The port configurations for each bridge, of course, implement the calculated spanning tree in the network. In accordance with the present invention, the root bridge makes these determinations for each of the non-root bridges. The root bridge then advertises the spanning tree (step 125) by sending TAs (tree advertisements) out to the network components. Each bridge then processes the TA messages and sets its ports (step 130) according to the instructions contained in the TA. The spanning tree has at this point been configured according to an embodiment of the present invention and the routing of data traffic (step 135) may either begin, or continue, as the case may be. One advantage of the present invention, however, is the manner in which a network configured in this manner responds to a failure, that is, the inability to route traffic according to the current active topology. To illustrate this, the method 20 of FIG. 16 continues with the step 140, where a failure condition is detected. Failure, or failure condition, as used herein, refer to an event that prevents or significantly inhibits forwarding data according to a current active topology. That is, failure may include an actual breakdown, but may also include the addition or removal of network bridges, links or other components, or significant bottlenecks. In this embodiment, it is first determined (step 145) whether an alternate (or backup) topology has been established. If so, the alternate topology is implemented (step 150). If not, or if the alternate topology is not successful, the process in this embodiment returns to step 120 and a new tree is calculated. This assumes, of course that the root bridge topology database has been maintained through periodic neighbor discovery messages, and the link state information is up to date. In other embodiments, the process may instead return to the neighbor discovery step 105 or the LSA step 110 prior to generating or updating the topology database and calculating a new spanning tree at step 120. In any case, however, since the root bridge remotely sets the port states of the non-root bridges, there is no need to wait until all bridge databases have been synchronized, and typically resulting in a faster recovery time. Finally, note that the calculation of a backup or alternate topology is optional, but in many cases can help speed recovery after failure. The alternate topology may be calculated when the primary active topology is determined, or at a later time and advertised separately. The variation operations associated with embodiments of the present invention will now be described in greater detail. For this purpose, it will be presumed that various of the message described above, such as LSAs and TAs, are in the format of standard BPDUs (bridge protocol data units) that have been modified according to the present invention for their respective purpose. The use of modified BPDUs in this way is preferred but not required. FIG. 1 is a flow diagram illustrating a method 25 of performing neighbor discovery according to an embodiment of the present invention. Again, at START, the network is presumed to be physically assembled and operable according to the method of the present invention. In this embodiment, neighbor information is collected via neighbor discovery messages, and preferably ND_BPDUs (step 205). Other types of messages may be used for collection of neighbor information may be used in other embodiments. In this embodiment, ND_BPDUs are sent and received according to a predetermined time period (the “Hello Time Period”). The received ND_BPDUs are examined and the information stored in a topology database (step not shown) for later reference. As ND_BPDUs are received each Hello Time Period, many times they will contain information already stored in the topology database. At other times, a new neighbor may manifest itself, or an expected ND_BPDU is not received, signaling a change in the configuration of the network. Therefore, each Hello Time Period each bridge examines the ND_BPDUs received and determines (step 210) if a new link has appeared or an existing one has timed out. That is, entries in the topology database may be timed out and erased after a predetermined number of Hello Time Periods if no ND_BPDU confirming their validity has been received. If no change occurs, the process simply returns to step 205 and collecting neighbor information as it is disseminated each Hello Time Period. If a change has been perceived, the bridge distributes LSA_BPDUs (step 215) to advertise the change. The topology database may also be updated at this time (step not shown). Each bridge then determines if it is currently a root bridge (step 220) and, if so, performs a tree calculation (step 225) with the newly acquired network information. Note that in accordance with the present invention, only root bridges need to perform the tree calculation process. In accordance with the present invention, the root bridge may run any active topology algorithm to build up the tree. The LSA_BPDUs distributed in step 215 are subsequently received in the various network bridges. FIG. 2 is a flow diagram illustrating a method 30 of processing a link state advertisement (LSA) according to an embodiment of the present invention. When an LSD_BDPU is received (step 230) at a bridge it is first examined (step 235) to determine whether it is outdated or has been received previously. This may be done using one or more techniques. For example, the receiving bridge may examine a sequence number and sending-bridge identifier of the LSA_BPDU. If a newer LSA_BPDU has already been received from that bridge, the one being examined may be discarded. In another embodiment, a path vector mechanism is employed and the receiving bridge checks to see if its own bit is set to determine whether the LSA_BDPU has been seen before. In yet another embodiment, a time-to-live field (TTL) may be utilized, with LSA_BPDUs being examined for age. If one or more of these methods indicates that the LSA_BPDU is no longer useful, it is discarded (step 240). This helps to prevent LSA_BPDUs from continuing to circulate unnecessarily in the network when they are no longer useful (although, depending on the determining technique used, they may under certain conditions be processed more than once in the same bridge). If the LSA_BDPU has not been received before, then it is forwarded (step 245) on each port of the bridge, except for the one on which it was received, and the bridge's topology database is updated (step 250). As in FIG. 1, each bridge, having updated its topology database, then determines if it is currently a root bridge (step 255) and, if so, performs a tree calculation (step 260) with the newly acquired network information. Note again that in accordance with the present invention, only root bridges need to perform the tree calculation process. The tree calculation process undertaken by the root bridge according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a flow diagram illustrating a method 35 of calculating a spanning tree according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method 35 of FIG. 3 begins with determining whether a change in the tree is necessary (step 265). This determination may be performed at regular intervals, or upon the happening of a triggering event, or both. If a tree change is not necessary, of course, the ordinary operation of the network may simply continue. If a tree change is determined to be necessary, then the method 35 proceeds to calculate a new tree from the current topology database (step 270). (Note that method 35 describes a root bridge operation, so no step of determining root-bridge status is shown.) The root bridge then configures discarding ports (step 275), followed by a configuration of forwarding ports (step 280). The tree configuration is then distributed throughout the network (step 285), for example using TA_BPDU messages. When the TA_BPDU (or other tree advertisement message) is received at a non-root bridge, it is processed and forwarded as necessary. FIG. 4 is a flow diagram illustrating a method 40 of tree configuration in a non-root bridge according to an embodiment of the present invention. The process begins with determining whether a TA_BPDU has been received (step 290). If not, of course, the routing of data traffic, if any, may continue normally. If so, the TA_BPDU is read (step 295), and the discarding ports, of any, are configured (step 305). The discarding ports do not have to be configured first, but his order is preferred and helpful to creating a loop-free topology. The forwarding ports, if any, are then configured (step 310). Assuming at least one forwarding port has been configured, the TA_BPDU is then forwarded on each of the bridge's forwarding ports (step 315). The format of BPDU messages follows generally the MSTP BPDU format of IEEE 802, with certain differences and special considerations as set forth below and in FIG. 5 though 12. FIG. 5 depicts a LSSTP_BPDU (link state spanning tree protocol BPDU) 45, according to an embodiment of the present invention. Regarding the fields of the LSSTP_BPDU especially related to implementation of the present invention, the BPDU type field 320 will reflect that this is an LSSTP_BPDU message. The Hello Time field 325 is used only in ND_BPDUs, not in other types of LSSTP_BPDUs. Note that the tree configuration identifier field 330 is the same as is proposed in IEEE 802.1ap Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks—Amendment 9: Shortest Path Bridging, Draft D0.3, dated May 9, 2006. The LSSTP Parameters 335 vary according to the type of LSSTP_BPDU, as described in more detail below. For an ND_BPDU according to the present invention, the LSSTP Parameters 335 are empty, as the necessary corresponding-link bridge and port identifiers are currently specified in the proposed IEEE 802 MSTP BPDU. In other words, the neighbor discovery process does not require additional LSSTP parameters for successful operation. For LSA_BPDUs according to the present invention, there are several options available. These options correspond generally with the different embodiments, described above in the context of discarding LSAs when they are outdated or no longer useful. These options are illustrated in FIGS. 6 a through 6 c, which show LSSTP parameters for an LSA_BDPU according to three embodiments of the present invention. In each of these embodiments, the respective LSSTP parameters include a Flags field 340 and a LSSTP Computation Protocol Identifier field 345, followed by link description information 355. In FIG. 6 a, an optional LSA-removal field 350 a includes a Sequence Number along with the Bridge ID of the sending bridge. In FIG. 6 b, optional LSA-removal field 350 b includes a Path Vector. The LSA removal options associated with each of these LSA-removal fields has been described above (in reference to FIG. 2). In a third embodiment, the TTL information already part of the standard BPDU message is used instead—and therefore no LSA-removal field is necessary—as shown in FIG. 6 c. Note that more than one of these LSA-removal options may be used, with appropriate changes made to the LSSTP parameters if needed, but using more than one option is not presently preferred. In an alternate embodiment, no LSA removal option is used at all, but this is not recommended. FIG. 7 illustrates LSSTP parameters for a TA_BDPU (tree advertisement BPDU) according to an embodiment of the present invention. This type of message also includes a Flags field 360 and a LSSTP Computation Protocol Identifier field 365. A Tree ID field 370 follows, and a Number of Bridges field 375, which of course specifies the number of bridges in the tree. The individual Bridge fields 380 follow, one for each bridge in the identified tree. The individual Bridge fields each identify the port configuration for one of the bridges in the tree. In this embodiment, the designated forwarding ports for each bridge are specified, and the remaining ports at that bridge are assumed to be discarding ports and configured accordingly. As mentioned above, these discarding ports are preferably configured first, prior to setting the forwarding ports. The root port is also specified, in this embodiment immediately following each Bridge ID. An alternate port toward the root bridge may also be listed (but is not shown in FIG. 7). FIG. 8 illustrates simplified LSSTP parameters for a TA_BDPU according to another embodiment of the present invention. Here, following the Tree ID field 370, a Number of Links field 385 relates the number of links in the tree rather than the number of bridges. Links fields 390 therefore follow the Number of Links field 385, and describe the tree in terms of the links between bridges. This reduces the size of the TA_BPDU, but increases the processing complexity as each bridge has to determine the how to set their ports based on the received tree description. Whether this trade-off is desirable may vary from network to network. An even more abbreviated form may be useful in some applications. The exemplary tree topology of FIG. 9, for example may be advertised using the TA_BPDU sequences illustrated in FIGS. 10-12. As can be seen in FIG. 9, Bridge 1 has two designated ports and hence two branches leading from it, specifically to Bridges 2 and 3. Bridge 2, in turn, has three branches leading out to Bridges 4, 5, and 6, and Bridge 3 had one branch leading to Bridge 7. Bridges 4 through 7 are leaf bridges, and therefore have no branches leading from them. According to this embodiment, a first TA_BPDU message is received in Bridge 1; this message (or rather the relevant portion thereof) is illustrated in FIG. 10. This type of message also includes a Flags field 405 and a LSSTP Computation Protocol Identifier field 410. A Tree ID field 415 follows. After the Tree ID field 415 is a first Tree Description field 420. The first Tree Description field includes the information needed at Bridge 1, namely, the relationship of the links and bridges that follow. As represented in FIG. 10, a first set of brackets encloses the identities of all of the links and bridges associated with port 1 of Bridge 1, and a second set of brackets encloses the identities of all the links and bridges associated with port 2 of bridge 1. Regarding the latter, port 2 is designated to a link to Bridge 3, and port 1 of Bridge 3 is designated to link to bridge 7. Port 1 of bridge 1 is also designated to link to a single bridge, Bridge 2, but since Bridge 2 has three ports, each designated to link to a respective one of Bridges 4, 5, and 6, the designations of Bridge 2's ports are each isolated in a set of interior brackets in the Tree Description field 420 of FIG. 10. Naturally, Bridge 1 uses the information in the Tree Description field 420 to configure its own ports 1 and 2. It then transmits one modified version of TA_BPDU message to Bridge 2 and another to Bridge 3 using the appropriate ports. In each case, the port designations not applicable to the recipient bridge are removed by Bridge 1 prior to sending. The TA_BPDU sent to Bridge 2 is illustrated in FIG. 11. In FIG. 11, it can be seen that in the Tree Description field 420-2, all that remains are the port assignments for Bridge 2; port 1, for example is designated to link to Bridge 4. Similarly, FIG. 12 illustrates the TA_BPDU, which is transmitted from Bridge 1 to Bridge 3. In FIG. 12, it can be seen that in the Tree Description field 420-3, all that remains is the port assignment for port 1 of Bridge 3, which is designated to link to Bridge 7. For example is designated to link to Bridge 4. Note that Bridges 4 through 7 are leaf bridges and as such have no forwarding ports to set. The TA_BPDUs (not shown) sent to these leaf bridges are similar to those depicted in FIGS. 10 through 12, but they will have a NULL value for their Tree Description field. FIG. 13 illustrates a bridge architecture according to an embodiment of the present invention. Note that IP link state routing protocols such as OSPF or IS-IS are not suitable without modification for application to forwarding control in Ethernet networks because loop prevention is not assured. In accordance with the present invention, however, the routing protocol entity is implemented as a higher layer as shown in FIG. 13. Operation of the STP (spanning tree protocol) entity as a higher layer entity is illustrated in FIG. 14. The routing protocol entity is attached to each port of a bridge similarly to the SPT entity. In this way, the routing protocol entity is able to send and receive frames on each port. For a routing protocol messages that is to flood the network, the routing protocol entity sends out the message on each port except the port on which the message was received. Other messages are processed by the routing protocol entity and only sent out on designated ports. As mentioned above, the routing protocols are not applicable without some modification. First, IP addresses are replaced by MAC addresses in the routing protocol and each frame is them forwarded according to the MAC address in its header. Second, a tree advertisement is inserted into routing protocol messages and the processing of tree advertisements is implemented in network bridges, as described in more detail above. Note that tree advertisements may be carried in routing protocol objects that are prepared for routing-protocol extensions. For OSPF routing, for example, a new type of Opaque LSA may be required. Opaque LSAs in OSPF provide for generalized for protocol extensions, and tree advertisement may be considered a type of extension. In a preferred embodiment, type-9 (link local) is used for tree advertisement Opaque LSAs. Tree advertisement may also be implemented in an IS-IS routing protocol using similar protocol extensions applicable there. In accordance with the present invention, tree advertisement messages (TA_BPDUs, for example) should not be flooded, to avoid accidental loops. Rather, they are forwarded only on links that are part of the tree that they advertise, and are sent from the root bridge toward the leaves. The tree topology is calculated in the root bridge, and all other bridges configure their ports according to the received tree advertisement. Note that processing of the tree advertisement messages accordance with the present invention may represent a new functionality implemented in the bridges' routing protocol entity. This new functionality includes the proper configuration of the ports that are part of the tree. That is, the bridges send the tree advertisement only to selected neighbor bridges instead of flooding all ports. The bridge may in some embodiments (as mentioned above) have to adjust the tree advertisement before forwarded it on the designated ports. The tree description schemes described above may also be implemented in routing protocols with the proper functionality. In this manner, IP routing protocols may be applied for the control of forwarding, that is, configuration of the active topology, in Ethernet networks.

Never Before Have I Been so Relieved to be Aging Out of the Feminist Blogosphere | Tiny Cat Pants Is there anything funnier than tiny cat pants? Dec 20 Never Before Have I Been so Relieved to be Aging Out of the Feminist Blogosphere I have lots of thoughts on this crap, but none of it is coherent. I wonder, for instance, not just whether you should quote extensively from people without asking when you’re writing about an instance in which people felt that there was a lot of “borrowing” without asking. I wonder if it’s even “fair use” to use whole blog posts without asking permission. I wonder about that dude’s friend, who seems like he might be being abused by his wife, and his friend sees his weird behavior and ascribes the problem to “women” or “feminists” and not to abuse. And I wonder if I really believe in redemption and I think that I don’t. Or at least, I don’t believe redemption then means you get to put yourself center stage. Share this:TwitterEmailDiggFacebookRedditStumbleUponLike this:Like Loading... Fun with Feminism 15 thoughts on “Never Before Have I Been so Relieved to be Aging Out of the Feminist Blogosphere” the Professor says: December 20, 2011 at 2:36 pm I wonder what disciple the dissertation is in. I don’t think it would occur to me to get permission to quote from anyone, but I would of course cite them. I know my work has been cited and no one asked me. That’s sorta how it works, right? But I do think that 2 concerns raised over there do matter. I just don’t know what to make of talking about the distinction between the moral and academic obligations of feminists and intellectuals. First, if the person is a member of a community researching a community, the IRB might should have something to say. That’s why I ask the discipline. But she isn’t interviewing or surveying them. It seems she’s analyzing what she observed. And second, to not discuss her own self and role in the work seems like bad work. But why not just make it a critique of her work? Flavia’s tone bothers me. It feels less like engagement than harsh judgment. It cannot be the case that white women can never talk about women of color. That just doesn’t make sense. But, yes, white women do often do a terrible job of talking about women of color, of getting clear about what’s at stake in feminism being inclusive and intersection. We have to figure out how to do this better, not tell white women they can’t succeed. nm says: December 20, 2011 at 2:50 pm Actually, if your dissertation claimed to be studying the individuals quoted (rather than using them as secondary, buttressing sources), I think your university’s Research Office would raise a hell of a ruckus if you didn’t get permission. I base this on long and tedious lectures from university research officers* and on the trouble taken by someone who wrote a scholarly article analyzing an e-mail list of which I was a member to get permission for everything he quoted, even anonymously/pseudonymously. *Trust me, I could not even get myself exempted from them by pointing out that the people I study have been dead for many centuries, and that I cite their appearances in public documents, not private communications. No, that didn’t matter. It was necessary for me to Understand These Important Procedures To Follow. Aunt B. says: December 20, 2011 at 2:53 pm It looks like she’s getting a law degree of some sort. It wouldn’t occur to me to get permission to quote from a book or journal article, no, that’s true. But it would for private correspondence between living people. And I’m not sure where exactly blogs fall on that continuum. It’s surely not private correspondence, but it’s not the same thing as a published book or journal article. Plus, she quotes Brownfemipower pretty extensively and those posts are no longer on the internet. She had to go to the Wayback machine to get them. So, in that case, she’s literally quoting from material the author has sought to unpublish. It seems to me that she’s trying to act, on the one hand, like a scholar from a more text-based field–the blogs are her texts and she’s analyzing them. But on the other hand, she only knows this stuff happened and that these blog posts existed because she is, in fact, a participant observer and I don’t think that anthropologists or sociologists have gotten to sit around academically observing people without their consent in some time. the Professor says: December 20, 2011 at 4:33 pm I would not ask permission to quote anything from the NYT, op ed or otherwise. I guess I think of blogs similarly – as public opinion. But surely not private correspondence. If that’s included, well, she’s clearly violating academic standards, not just moral ones. RachelW says: December 20, 2011 at 5:04 pm I think the idea that one can “age out” of the feminist blogosphere tells us about something else wrong with the feminist blogoshere, as well. Kathy says: December 20, 2011 at 5:37 pm I’ve been thinking (and drafting a post) about this too: I “riff” off a lot of other bloggers. I cite and link, and granted, the blogosphere is not academia, not by a long shot, but is this, if not unethical, intellectually lazy? I’d never use an entire blog post for anything, cited on not. Given the feminist blogosphere’s history of appropriation, I’m surprised that anyone who’d claim to be a member of it would go there. nm says: December 20, 2011 at 5:51 pm The issue comes down to the respective attitudes toward unwitting participation. Academia tries very hard to ensure that people who have participated in a study have done so only after giving permission. So the people being studied, surveyed, whatever, have to give explicit consent. The authors of books or articles being cited in a study, however, are assumed to have given consent to being quoted, cited, argued against, etc. by the act of publishing those works. Obviously, citing at too great a length or without proper citation is plagiarism, and citing truncated or edited selections that misrepresent the original author’s position is dishonest. The blogosphere tends to take the position that putting up a blog post constitutes publishing, and that any blog post can be cited or quoted in another. Therefore there is no such thing as unwitting participation.* The question then becomes whether a blogger can unpublish — is a post, once posted, to be considered published forever? Or can a blogger, in taking a post down, fairly ask that it not be cited elsewhere? The blogosphere has no rules against plagiarizing or misrepresenting a source, and there doesn’t seem to be any consensus about whether comments on a blog post should be considered published. This, I think, is a huge problem for the blogosphere. RachelW says: December 20, 2011 at 5:55 pm nm, and what degree of unpublished is necessary? One can request exclusion or removal from the Wayback Machine – but the post is still going to appear in quoted forms, and possibly in RSS feeds. What is “enough?” Aunt B. says: December 20, 2011 at 7:25 pm On my way home I was thinking about how I’d feel if I found myself quoted in her dissertation and I decided that I’d think it was strange for her to quote me without telling me, but not wrong-wrong. I mean, one thing about the internet is that, when someone reads you and quotes from you, they usually link to you, not just so that people can see where they got the ideas from, but so that you know you’re being talked about. So, I feel a little like quoting without informing, while maybe academically okay, is bad etiquette. But I also think that, if I were her adviser, I’d be troubled by the idea that she’s writing about an incident in the recent past that took place among people who all are, as far as I know, still living, and she doesn’t contact them to find out what they think about the situation now. The whole idea of treating their words on years’ old blog posts as texts that tell you all you need to know about their ideas about this topic is strange. Even in her dissertation, she seems to think that the drawback to her approach is that she couldn’t possibly read everything that was said in the blogosphere on the subject, not that she didn’t see what the principal players thought now. emjb (@emjb) says: December 20, 2011 at 9:31 pm I don’t know, I see all this struggle and anger as part of the growth of feminism. We have 5000 years or more of patriarchy plus all the intersecting oppressions of race and disability and what have you to confront and dismantle, and still only a small percentage of the planet even knows or cares about doing so. Is it really surprising that the process is so messy and slow? Aunt B. says: December 20, 2011 at 11:07 pm Ha, well, true enough. I guess if it were comfortable or easy to figure out, we’d know it wasn’t changing us enough. Katherine Coble says: December 21, 2011 at 9:19 am I haven’t visited the second and third links yet, but that first link reminds me of so much that I hate about the murk surrounding blogs and, especially, blog comments. I’ve bitched loudly and long on other occasions about people who “write” books that are essentially compiled of blog comments. This seems to be the same garbage. As for aging out of the feminist blogosphere, I’ve never lasted very long in it, as a general rule. I will sometimes lurk. But my lord. What is it with the Feminist Blogosphere and all the tl;dr posts?! I’ve never seen a set of work more in need of editing and conciseness as the feminist blogosphere in general.

This is like walking into de ja vu Bizarroland. Aunt B. says: December 30, 2011 at 9:42 am I know. Everyone’s gone to Tumblr and Facebook, but I just haven’t made the leap. Probably won’t. jennifer says: December 30, 2011 at 1:20 pm Ooh, @emjb, that ties neatly to an excellent post I read recently on exactly that thought with regards to other communities: http://transgriot.blogspot.com/2011/12/contentious-strategy-arguments-in.html « The Best is When I Make Myself Laugh 1867 is Going Swimmingly » The State of Tennessee (663) Archives Select Month May 2013 April 2013 March 2013 February 2013 January 2013 December 2012 November 2012 October 2012 September 2012 August 2012 July 2012 June 2012 May 2012 April 2012 March 2012 February 2012 January 2012 December 2011 November 2011 October 2011 September 2011 August 2011 July 2011 June 2011 May 2011 April 2011 March 2011 February 2011 January 2011 December 2010 November 2010 October 2010 September 2010 August 2010 July 2010 June 2010 May 2010 April 2010 March 2010 February 2010 January 2010 December 2009 November 2009 October 2009 September 2009 August 2009 July 2009 June 2009 May 2009 April 2009 March 2009 February 2009 January 2009 December 2008 November 2008 October 2008 September 2008 August 2008 July 2008 June 2008 May 2008 April 2008 March 2008 February 2008 January 2008 December 2007 November 2007 October 2007 September 2007 August 2007 July 2007 June 2007 May 2007 April 2007 March 2007 February 2007 January 2007 December 2006 November 2006 October 2006 September 2006 August 2006 July 2006 June 2006 May 2006 April 2006 March 2006 February 2006 January 2006 December 2005 November 2005 October 2005 September 2005 August 2005 July 2005 June 2005 May 2005 April 2005 March 2005 February 2005 January 2005 December 2004 November 2004 October 2004 September 2004 Subscribe Blog Stats 1,918,104 hits since on WordPress 03/03/2007
